A Quick Moment With God Personal Message from Lisa Kane: When I first became a believer, I struggled with putting God first in my life. I prayed about it, and slowly began by reading just one verse a day and saying a short prayer. That simple step completely transformed my walk with the Lord. Over time, it became the most important part of my day. Now, every morning when I wake up and every night before bed, I spend time in God’s Word and in prayer. The Bible tells us in Matthew 6:33 (KJV): “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Make the decision today to commit your heart fully to the Lord. It will be the most life-changing—and the most important—choice you’ll ever make. Dec 12, 2025 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

House of Faith Ministries (HoFM) is an online ministry providing Holy Spirit revelation of the Word of God. Mission Statement To live the reality of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in such a manner that: Death to the things of this world in our lives will be obvious to all, while we proclaim the life of Jesus Christ to every corner of the world; Beginning with the very corners of our world. Purpose To be found worthy of His calling at His soon return. Motto For He that promised is faithful. Luke 18:8 Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? May the Lord bless you and keep you; may the Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; may the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace. Greetings in the name of Jesus our redeemer. My name is Marcos Marrero, and this is what I believe: I believe that we ought to always thank God for sending Jesus, his only begotten Son to die for our sins. I believe that we ought to praise God always, for He did not leave his only begotten Son hanging on the cross or inside the grave. We ought to worship Him! The creator of the heavens and the earth, who raised Jesus from the dead, and has given Him a name that is above every name. Philippians 2:9-11 "Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." It is my intention for this web page to make this proclamation: The Word of God is the only TRUTH! Jesus, the messiah of Israel is the revelation of God's TRUTH! The Holy Spirit sanctifies every human who believes the TRUTH, as presented in the gospel of Jesus Christ. II Thessalonians 2:13-14 "But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God chose you to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth. He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ." I boldly proclaim that the same Jesus that was taken up to heaven and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father, creator of heaven and earth. Will soon return to this earth to set up His kingdom. I boldly proclaim that this same Jesus will judge both the living and the dead. Those who believe God's TRUTH as presented in the gospel of Jesus Christ will be rewarded with the crown of life, and will forever be with the Lord. But those who reject the TRUTH of the gospel of Jesus Christ will be dammed for eternity. II Thessalonians 2:12 "That they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness." I also believe that God will hold every believer accountable who does not strive to have the work of faith with power in their lives. II Thessalonians 1:11 "Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power." It is the demonstration of God's power through faith in the TRUTH of the Word of God, that will convict sinners of their error and cause them to cry out for our God's salvation. Luke 5:8 "When Simon Peter saw it, (the demonstration of God's miracle working power) he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying 'depart from me for I am a sinful man, O Lord!'" It is my desire to present to you in this web page the gospel of Jesus Christ in its true form. Free from the contamination of human fallacies. Knowing, even as I am writing this, that Jesus will hold me accountable for everything that I will be teaching here. James 3:1 "Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly." Lord Jesus! I dedicate this web page to you. I pray for your anointing and guidance. Let those who read its contents be led by your precious Holy Spirit to receive the promises of your abundant life. Amen. House of Faith Ministries (HoFM)

House of Faith Ministries (HoFM) highlights past messages reminding you that those messages still apply to today. BLAST FROM THE PAST UNDERSTANDING THE BOOK OF REVELATION PART 8 Audio by Pastor Marcos Marrero June 21, 2009 Objective: Equip listeners with a clear, faith-building understanding of the second half of the Tribulation in Revelation—how global government, Israel, and the Church converge under Christ’s ultimate judgment—so believers are reassured of their hope in Jesus while discerning the mark of the beast, the role of the two witnesses, the end-time timeline, and the call to steadfast obedience. Synopsis: Opening & posture: A prayer of consecration and readiness to receive God’s Word, seeking protection from hindrances and an outpouring of blessing, peace, joy, power, healing, deliverance, and restoration. End-time framework (three converging “dispensations”): Nations/New World Order moving toward one world government and economy; Israel restored as a nation (yet “without the Spirit” in Ezekiel’s dry bones sense); The Church restored to apostolic foundations; a faithful Philadelphia remnant contrasted with a Laodicean church left behind. Seals & historical momentum: The spirit of antichrist, wars, and a demonic door of deception associated with 20th-century upheavals set the stage for present global consolidation and control. Rapture & mid-point shift (Rev 11): The faithful Church is caught up; the two witnesses minister for 1,260 days, are killed, then raised and called up. Their departure signals the “abomination that causes desolation”—the removal of anointed restraint on earth and a transfer of God’s dealing back to Israel. Economic control & the mark (Rev 13:15–18): The beast enforces worship through total commerce control—no buying or selling without the mark, name, or number (666). This marks the period when Satan rules globally through a man, unopposed by remaining spiritual restraint. Number symbolism & tabernacle typology: 153 as “sons of Elohim/children of light” (linked to John 21:11) → a picture of the completed people of God: Church (7 lampstands), Israel (12×12=144 showbread), plus the two witnesses = 153. Tabernacle layout illustrates the rapture, cleansing, reward, and entry into God’s presence; the two witnesses as olive trees alongside the lampstand. Second-half timeline (Daniel & Revelation): Post-midpoint period described with 1,290 days to judgment; overall antichrist ascendancy framed with 666 (interpreted here as a span of conquest) and a terminal 1,332 days culminating in Christ’s intervention. A seven-Sabbath (6×7=42 days) cadence of final bowl judgments completes God’s wrath. Three angelic proclamations (Rev 14): Everlasting gospel preached worldwide; Babylon (false religion) falls, demonic deception caged; Warning: worshiping the beast/receiving the mark brings irrevocable judgment. Martyr harvest & vindication (Rev 14–15): Those who refuse the mark are martyred, then gathered by the Son of Man and seen on the sea of glass singing the Song of Moses and the Song of the Lamb—law and grace united—awaiting temple access until the seven bowls finish. Final bowls (Rev 16) in weekly cadence: Targeted judgments (beginning with grievous sores on the marked) unfold over 42 days, demonstrating the incurable nature of allegiance to the beast. Second Coming & defeat of evil (Rev 19): Jesus descends on a white horse; the beast and false prophet are seized alive and cast into the lake of fire; the gathered armies are destroyed by the word of His mouth. Millennial horizon: Resurrected saints reign with Christ, serving as His administrators among long-lived, earth-bound survivors in a restored creation order. Appeal & assurance: Believers rest in Christ’s finished work—kept from the hour of testing—while those not yet in Christ are urged to call on His name today for salvation and peace. Inspired Teaching - Written and/or Transcribed from Video Above: Very good. Thanks be to Jesus. Let me know if it's too loud. Hallelujah. Gloria. If you got the book, we're going to start on page 62. 62. 62. [Music] I got me new pair of glasses, so they work good. Father in heaven in Jesus name, we thank you for this opportunity to come and uh to partake of your word. Father God, we bind each and every spirit that would come to uh block or to hinder the flow of your anointing here tonight. Father God, in the name of Jesus, we come in agreement that we are servants and as servants, we need to be fed by the master. And we come to the master's table, our Lord Jesus Christ and his word, the bread that came down from heaven to partake of it. And there's a promise that as we partake from the bread that is presented uh in the book and through the book of Revelation, that it will be a blessing for us. And so we open oursel up to receive the blessing tonight, Father God. The blessing of peace, the blessing of joy, the blessing of power in the Holy Ghost, the blessing that brings healing, deliverance, and restoration to our spirit, to our souls, and to our bodies. Father, in Jesus name we thank you, Lord. Amen. Amen. Praise God. Thank God for his mighty mighty blessings. Hallelujah. Anyway, we are coming to the second half of the seven-year uh uh wrath of God. And so, I just want to give a brief description of of where we're going tonight. Uh I said that um God is bringing three entities or three dispensations uh together at the end time and he's bringing them together to deal with them or to judge them. Remember Jesus Christ the first time he came he came as a savior. The second time he comes as a judge. God has given to him the authority to deal with everything on earth. He is the last Adam. The dominion that God had originally given to Adam that Adam forfeited has been bestowed upon Jesus. Jesus says, "I have authority in heaven on earth and on the earth beneath and on the waters below." He's king of kings is lower lord. So he uh the reason why we know we're living in the last uh days is because this generation is the only generation that have seen these three dispensations come to place at the same time. We have the nations of the world now becoming into what is called the new world order. This new world order means that the earth for the first time since when Nimrod led a rebellion against God will come into one world government. We're living through that right now. You cannot have one world government without one world economy. Remember the biggest problem of getting uh uh Europe together was getting one currency. They finally got a constitution. They finally got one currency. England is the only one that's still holding to the pound and but that will be gone. The euro is becoming the center of that. So you cannot have one world government without one world economy. Then the uh nation of Israel which is a dispensation uh had to be brought back into place because God had to judge the nation of Israel not the Jews. The nation of Israel had to be judged. So that means that God had to bring Israel. Now, Israel is the only nation in the history of the whole world that ceased to exist for a large amount of time. In their case, almost 2,000 years. Actually, they were kicked out of the land in 65 AD by Titus, a Roman general, who destroyed the temple where Jesus was baptized in and uh in Jerusalem. They have been as a nation nonexistent for almost 2,000 years. Then out of the blue, according to the prophets, Israel was born as a nation in 1948. And as you know, there's been six wars to try to eliminate him and they still can. Okay. So, we have the nations of the world becoming one. We have the nation of Israel being established. But according to Ezekiel, without the spirit, if you read Ezekiel, Ezekiel looks at the valley of dry bones and God asked Ezekiel, "Can these bones live?" Ezekiel said, "I don't know." And then he said, "Well, prophesy." And then he says that as he prophesied, the bones came together, a whole army came out, but they didn't have a spirit. And that's what Israel has done. They have combination, but they still don't have the anointing. Why? Because the anointing has been given to the church. Now the church is another one dispensation that God is dealing with and the church dispensation had to be judged according to the apostolic foundations on which the church was founded. Ephesian Paul tells us that the church was founded upon the apostles being Jesus Christ the chief apostle of the chief cornerstone. Now we know that the church lost all of that through the middle ages and this year or this this this this last century. So the revival of the church and believe me very very few people that believe what do you call it the uh the uh the apostolic ship of the church. Very few of us believe on that. So the church but the apostolic has been restored. many prophecies. Uh um the guy that precided over the 1906 uh uh outpouring of the Holy Spirit, Seymour, he prophesied that it would be an outpouring again in 2006. He prophesied that there would be an upping but that this time would be worldwide. So the reason why we know we're living in the last generation because this is the only generation that has witnessed the restoration of of Israel as a nation according to the scripture, the restoration of the one world government and the restoration of the church to its apostolic roots. Why? Because when the church is judged, there's going to be a church that's left behind. The one that doesn't need Christ, that doesn't need the blood, that doesn't need those things. And there's a one that's true that's kept his name and that kept his his he his his word. You kept my word and you did not deny my name. That is the the church that is going to be raptured. Okay. So those three entities are in place. Now today we hear about this economic crisis that that is befalling everything. When we deal with the seals, I told you that the seals is the spirit or the force that drives the church age. And I told you that the first seal the antichrist was the antichrist going to conquer and conquering and to conquer that represents the spirit of antichrist that denies that Jesus Christ is the son of god. The second seal was wars and rumors of war but then out of those wars would come in one that would have a large sword and this is Hitler. Hitler opened a big spiritual door. I was watching something yesterday. It just blew me away how Hitler was. This guy was on a seance in 1913 or 14 and and uh a demon came in and told this guy, "You're going to meet the Messiah and you're going to groom the Messiah for his place." Three years later, this guy saw Hitler and the spirit said, "That's the one." And he began to groom Hitler. He lay hands on Hitler. 1923, the guy died of cancer. Another psychic came in and began to to move through Hitler telling happened to be a Jew, a Bulgarian Jew that when Hitler found out he was Jew, he killed him. All of this demonic roots of that guy is what opened everything we have today. All of the knowledge that is in the world today came through Hitler. Believe it or not, this was a door, a demonic door that was open. All this surgery, all of this uh uh uh uh heart transplant li all of that knowledge came through the human experiment that Hitler did, all kinds of doctor, all of the space rays, all of these rockets, all of the jet engine, all of these things. And and then on this towards the end it says now that when Hitler died that many believe that he went underground that he got into a submarine because Hitler the whole time that he was there he was searching for the hole that would lead to the center of the earth because they believe that the earth is hollow and that there was a superior race of beings locked up underneath the earth and he was looking for an access to that. And I've been telling you that the antichrist is a beast that rises out of the abyss and this happened when when we get to the trumpet judgment. So I mean it's just so much going on that it is just incredible how we are living in the end times. We are definitely living on the end times to where we're seeing right now an a world economy and whoever controls the economy controls the world. And that's what the antichrist does. He controls the world. Now we said that when the sixth trumpet blew the church was judged that Leo the church got left because they had Jesus on the outside. Behold I send them the door and knock. If anybody hears my voice and open the doors I will come in. That church get left behind. The Philadelphia church the one that keeps his word and the one that does not deny his name his deity that church is gone. That begins this seven-year period. We said that dur during the first 1260 days, God released the first five months called the first wool. All of the demons that are in hell. Why? Because Jesus comes to the air and that's where Satan is now. He's the chief ruler principality that is on the air opposing our prayers and and everything. Everything that comes from heaven has to travel through that. That's why when Daniel was praying, Gabriel was held up. When Jesus comes in, he dislodges Satan out of there. It says there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and his angels and the dragon and the angels could not prevail and they were cast to the earth. They were removed out of that uh demonic realm. And that's where we go meet Jesus. That's where the rapture when he said we we're not going to heaven. We're going to be caught up with the Lord in the air to meet him in the clouds and the air. So when Satan gets thrown out of that place, that's where we were taken out to that place. And while we're there, these demons are now on earth. And for five months, they're given power to torment everybody, but they cannot kill anybody. So God in his grace allows this to happen. Then four angels are released from the river Euphrates that have been locked there. And then these are the ones like the executioners and they deal with this. And at the end of this, which is where we finished last week, the two witnesses are killed and then they are raised up to life. At the end, they prophesy for 1,260 days, which is uh uh uh 42 months. They are killed. Their bodies lay in Jerusalem for three and a half days. After that, the meaning towards the evening, the spirit of God come upon him, raises them up, and says, "Come up here." And then we saw that that was the the second uh resurrection or the second stage of the first resurrection. You have the resurrection of the church which includes a rapture. You have the resurrection of the saint of the first half of the tribulation which includes God taking people to the earth to protect them. And we read that last week. In other words, uh when you are resurrected, you becomes like the angels of heaven. you're not human anymore in the sense that you can reproduce. So because of that, God has to keep humans uh uh uh on the earth for Israel to reproduce. These people we read last week as they go into the holes and into the caves, their idols, which is the demons are going to be left to the bath and to the bowls. they go through that, God is going to do a a a purification to where when they go into the earth, they're delivered of every demonic thing. They are not released until when Jesus Christ comes back and he brings them up. Now, what I want to deal with tonight is what happens in that middle and in the second half. And um we're going to start in Revelation chapter 13. If you got the book, it's at the very bottom of the page 62. That's where it start. Revelation 13 15-8 it says he was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is 666. Now notice that the power of this beast has to do with the ability to buy or to sell an economic thing. Back in the days when everybody was farmer, you didn't have to buy anything. You could grow your own tomatoes and stuff you could do with everything. Now today, very few people could do that. So now here's what happened. Uh at the end of the 1260 days, the two witnesses are killed. They're laying in the mount. The world is rejoicing because to them, these people were men from outer space. Aliens were tormented them. We the humans finally figure out how to kill them. They're laying there at the end of this three and a half days. Their bodies come back alive and they're taken. Now, Daniel says that when you see that happen, when you see the desolation, the abomination that causes desolation, it tells to all of the Jews, flee to the mountains. If you're in Judea, flee to the mountains. We have a scripture over here. Uh, let me see if I can find it. Okay, it's a little further down the road. Let me not get ahead of myself. But anyway, what happens is these uh Jews have to flee to the grounds to the caves because God is going to use them to restore the nation of Israel physical. We remember we're in heaven. Everybody that's resurrected goes to heaven. So now as soon as the two witnesses are removed, the anointed authority on the earth is removed for the first time ever. From the time that God created Adam, the dominion was given to Adam. Even though Adam's sin, still his clothes, the clothes that God gave him from the animals that he killed represented the men who had the authority that was passed down to Noah, that was passed down to Shem. And all through I don't care how many darkness has been in the church age has been the church even when the church was in the medieval days corrupted even today when the church corrupted still the church is God's representative on the earth it's not until the church is removed the anointed the the remnant God always has a remnant remember when Elisha was fighting uh uh uh uh Elisha said to God they kill everybody and they're after me and the only one left and God said to Elijah I got 7,000 who have not bowed their knees to bail. God always has a remnant which Satan doesn't know where they're at, otherwise Satan will get them. But God always has a remnant. Okay? So this church when it is removed, the anointing is placed back upon Israel. Why? Because Israel is the one that now has to be dealt with. There's seven years left for God to deal with Israel. At the end of these three and a half years when the two witnesses are resurrected on the second part of the first resurrection takes place it Daniel says that it becomes desolate. The abomination that causes the desolation. Desolation means that the anointed authority from God upon the earth is removed. That means there is no power of prayer anymore. See, right now you could see an evil coming and just one little old lady that nobody's heard about it gets on their knees and praise to God. Paul puts it in Thessalonian. He says, "The spirit of antichrist is already at work. But there's something that's hindering him from coming on. But when that one that hinders him is removed, then he will be revealed." So this power of evil cannot be removed as long as there's an anointed person upon the earth that has power to pray because Jesus said, "I give you authority over all the power of the enemy." The enemy means Satan. Satan, the word Satan means enemy, adversary. That's what Satan mean. So every Christian, I don't care how simple or how weak or how imperfect you are, you believe the word of God. You believe that Jesus is the son of God, that he is the deity, that he was born of God, the the bloodline of, you have authority with God. Your name is written in heaven. As long as your name is written in heaven, you have authority. And the Antichrist cannot take over anything as long as we're there. This is how powerful we are. That's what Jesus said. But you see, once that anointing, we're removed, that anointing is passed through the Jews. The two witnesses are killed. They're removed. Where's that anointing goes? It's gone. That's why Daniel prophecy said the abomination that causes desolation. Now, the mark of the beast that we just read is the time that this Satan basically through this man rules over the earth without any opposition. This is the time. See, it says it is the number of a man. Notice what it says there. Uh it says um he the image of the beast that uh is able to speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. He causes all both small and great, rich and poor. That means the richest or the poorest, free slave. If you're in prison, there all have to receive a mark on their right hand and on their foreheads. And no one may buy or sell except the one who has the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name. Notice is a mark that represents the name or the number of his name. This is important that you understand the number of his name. And then he says here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast for it is the number of a man. His number is 666. Now you say, "Well, how can I calculate or figure the number of the bees?" Well, uh, if you're on the book, uh, it's on page 63 at the bottom. If you got your Bible, you can go to Deuteronomy 32. Look at verses 7 and 8. In Deuteronomy 32:es 7 and 8, Moses, by the way, wrote 12 psalms. He dedicated one psalm to each tribe of Israel. Psalms 90 to 100, that's 11 psalms of Moses are there. Deuteronomy, this is this area we're reading now in Deuteronomy 32 is called the song of Moses. And the song of Moses is a prophetic. All 12 psalms of Moses are prophetic and they're rich in meaning. As a matter of fact, in in Psalm 90, Moses says uh the the teach us to number our days. teach us to count and then that's when he says that the days like a thousand years and a year is like a thousand day and then he says the lifespan of men remember when Moses live 120 years Joshua lived anotherund and some years when Moses's day people still a lot longer but yet in Psalm 90 Moses says the days the lifespan of a human is 70 years and then it's 80 if you have the strength now The Jesus said that the last generation shall not pass away until all other things take place. And what is we the the the Philadelphia church told in Revelation chapter 3? You have little strength. That's the key word that tells you that the last generation is going to be a 70-year generation because according to Moses, it lasts 80 years if you have the strength. our generation the last generation Jesus says you have little strength that means that that is a 70 year generation and that's a code word the 70 year okay now Moses is given as a code word over here in Deuteronomy 327 and8 and he tells the children of Israel said remember the days of old consider the years of many generations ask your father and he will show you ask your elders and they will tell you. When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he said, "Bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel." All Jews see the world through a very simple light. You're either a son of Elohim or a son of Adam. You're either a Jew, light, law, enlightenment, or you're a gentile, which them is means like sinners. So in that verse over there, if you read it in in the original Hebrew, the sons of Adam means the humans, the unregenerated humans. The sons of Israel means sons of Elohim. Now you go to Psalm 82. I mean Psalm chap chap Psalm 8 I think it is and beginning at verse two it talks about the sons of Elohim what what are the uh what are we the children of men that you have given us power and it's talking about the sons of Elohim now why is that so important you mean because the phrase sons of Elohim has a numerical value in Hebrew and you see if we're going to figure out the mark of a beast it says that it's a number of a man and you need to calculate the number of a man. So the sons of Elohim, the letter sons of Elohim, Elohim means God. The sons of Elohim or the children of light or the enlightened children. That's why Jesus says you are children of the light. Don't hide your light under the butcher. We're sons of Elohim. We're children of light. Jesus said don't hide your light. We have a light. So the sons of Elohim has a numerical value of 153. Now, that is very important because when you get to John 21:11, and John is a spiritual version of of the gospel, it says there in John 21:11, Simon Peter went up and dragged the net to land full of large fish, 153. And although there were so many, the net was not broken. Imagine that. I I was a fisherman. I I fish a lot in Cuba. I used to catch shrimp, octopus, I I catch all time. One thing you never do is you count the fish when they're more than 20. If you catch five or six, you remember how many you caught, but once you get up to 153 fish, you know that that's a lot of fish. The Bible is giving us something. Why is that happening? This is the last time that Peter cast the net. that is speaking about spiritually a symbol of this is the the collection of all the saints. This is the collection of all the children of light. This is a completion of law and grace because God gave a promise to Abraham. He said, "Your seed will be like the sand uh uh uh the sand of the seashore and like the stars of heaven." The promise to Abraham was physical and spiritual. They'll have children. Abraham is going to produce children that are going to inherit the physical kingdom of God. During the kingdom age, there's going to be two kinds of people. When Jesus rules and reigns on the earth, those of us who are resurrected and have the new body, we're going to be like Jesus. We're going to be totally physical, able to eat, stake, able to run, able to do all of things. But yet, we like Jesus going to be able to travel through walls and we're going to be able to travel at the speed of thought. I want to be in Cuba and I'm there because that's how Jesus's body is. That's the type of body we're going to have. And during a thousand years, it says that we're going to rule and reign with Christ. Well, how do you rule and reign with Christ? There probably not going to be no cars because there's not going to be pollution during the kingdom age. The kingdom age is going to be a rural kind of to where horses and and and ships with sales and stuff like that. How do the people that will be living in America at that time know what Jesus wants them to do when Jesus is ruling out of Jerusalem? Us. We're going to rule and reign with Christ. we're going to be able to pop over there. The Lord says, "Marcos, there I am. I want you to go tell Joe over there and that so and so that he needs to plant his this type of plant this time because that's what I'm going to bless." And I'm over here and say, "Hey Joe, why?" Because Joe doesn't have a new body yet. See, the people who survive this tribulation are going to come into a kingdom like it was before the days of Noah to where people live lives over a 900 years. Isaiah speaking about this. He says that during the kingdom age, a person who dies at the age of 100 will be like a baby dying. So these people all of this toxic and and and and son that kills all of that is going to be barred by the time we enter into the kingdom age. The people to survive and and and the people's going to be there, they're going to reproduce like crazy. There's not going to be no war. There's not going to be no devil. There's not going to be no death. So in a hundred years, I mean imagine when they came when Columbus came here to America 500 years ago, there were just a few hands of people, the whole continent of America right now has billions of people. This is how fast we multiply in just two 300 years. And yet all of those people died. Imagine if Columbus would still be alive. if all those people still be alive and reproducing because you know they they go to to a woman's ovary and they know that she's able she's had thousands and thousands of eggs they can figure out well if a woman reaches a place where she can reproduce no more why is it that in her DNA she has all of this thing because we were never designed to die and during this thousand-year reign of Christ we are going to fulfill the destiny for the entire human race both spiritual and physical so as we rule and reign with Christ there's is going to be people that's going to be earthbound. So that's what our job is that we are going to be able to go in front of Jesus in Jerusalem and go back. And it tells us that the nations that don't offer up the the right offerings to the Lord will not be blessed with rain. They will not have no rain. And so this is the system. So once you understand that, now you realize that God is taking because the Jewish race has to inherit the earth. They were given a physical promise. They were told that they were going to inherit the land all the way from the Euphrates all the way to the Mediterranean. They have never ruled that. Even during David and Solomon, they only rule onethird of the promise. During the kingdom age, that will be all their lot. Okay? And so now the antichrist, and we read this last week, the devil possesses him, goes after the woman, but she goes into the ground where she's protected. And then so he makes war against her offspring, those who believe in the law and those who believe in in in in in Jesus. And during this time now, this guy is going to control the whole earth. And his number is 666, meaning that that has to do with what he's going to control. Now, Satan is always an imitator. And everything that God does, Satan imitates. So the question that I want to ask you now is how did God arrive at the number 153? Why does the children of Elohim? Why is there a numerical value 153? To do that you need to understand what Moses did. Moses built uh the tabernacle which is a type. This is different uh things that went into the tabernacle. And in that he copied it from heaven. He gave us a picture of how God counts the children of Israel. When you went into the the u the holy place, let's say that this is the holy place and that this will be the door here. Let's say that from here to there this is hold the holy place. The holy place there was a curtain right here a very thick curtain and that part there was completely blocked and nobody could go into that side of the holy place except once a year on the day of atonement which is going to be next week by the way day of atonement. The only furniture that was on that side of the curtain was the ark of the covenant. The ark of the covenant was solid gold. You took this lid out, which was all one piece for the two angels. And inside of there was the ten commandments that God gave to Moses. There was a rod of h the rod of Aaron, a piece of dead wood that bought it and there was a jar of mana and that was placed in there that was into this holy place. Now in into the holy of holies in the holy place where the priest went in every day as you came in through the curtain on this side of it there was a minora which represents the church. You see revelation chapter one it says that Jesus was moving in between the church which is seven. So the church is seven sealed seven uh churches is on this side of the place. Now on the opposite side facing that it was what they call the table of showbread. And in this table there were 12 loaves of bread that were made fresh every Monday. They were put in there until the Sabbath day. At the end of Sabbath day that bread would be taken out and a new loaf would put in. You probably read about David when he was fleeing and they were starving and he came to a place and asked the priest, "You guys got anything to eat? The enemies is in our hill. we haven't eaten anything for two, three days. And the priest told him, "All we got is the table that's there." And and so they ate. When they asked Jesus about violating the law and stuff like that, said, "Haven't you read when David was fleeing and how he was fed from that bread?" Okay, now remember all of this represents something. Then in the middle facing the curtain where you couldn't open or go in there except once a year was this item. This is called the uh the altar of incense. Only a very special mix of 11 herbs and spices can be used there. And that was like this is placed in the front. No, now watch what this symbolize. The table of showbread symbolizes Israel. The minora represents the church. This represents the holy of holies, heaven, the presence of God. And here represents the the table where the incense is brought on. Incense represents prayer. You read that into revelation. Now before you came into the holy place and the rest of the thing, there was a big altar over here which is a big altar that you see u let me see uh if you can see it is right here. You see the smoke rising out of it. That was called the brace and altar. All the altar of great sacrifice. A priest came in through the door that was on the east. The very first thing he met was this huge altar where the sacrifice were offered. And then next to it was what called a labor. And there there's a picture is during the days of Solomon was a huge labor that was set on top of 12 boos. Now look what happened in Revelation chapter 7. We're told that the angel comes from the east. Why the east? Because in this place there were only one entrance and the entrance was on the east. The Bible tells us that God gives us beauty for ashes. Why? Because the altar of great sacrifice, when you offer a burnt offering, all that was left is the ashes that were in the bottom. When you live and you serve God and you die, your body is nothing but ashes. When the rapture comes, those ashes are put together, brought up. Now Paul says that during the the the resurrection and the rapture, those of us who are alive and remain are going to be caught up. So look at the picture. The angel comes from the east, comes through the door, comes right to the altar and every person who died in Christ, woo, rises up. And as he go up the stair, like the high priest used to go up the stair, every person who's still up here in the fire because we're in tribulation. That's why the the church go through tribulation. As we're going through this tribulation, we get caught up and we're taken. Now, where did we go to? Well, see, our goal is the Holy of Holies. That's where God is. That's where Jesus is. That's where the blood of Jesus is. So, the Bible says that we have wrinkles that have to be cleaned up. It's called the judgment seat of Christ. It's a judgment of reward. We're already been cut up. We're already been saved. is now we're going to give him uh clean clothes and we're going to give an assignment. Okay? Because God does everything right. So we're brought to this labor which represents the word of God that washes us. We all appear before the judgment seat of Christ. Once we're cleansed, the angel goes into the holy place. And what's the first thing he goes? He goes to where the manora is. That represents the church. That mean that our physical body now that has been resurrected will be united with our soul and our spirit which are now already seated at the right hand of God. Every person that has died with Christ is there is in the temple of God right now waiting. They cannot physically go into the presence of God yet until they're get their new body like Jesus. Remember Jesus said to to uh Martha or Mary said don't touch me. I haven't ascended yet. My physical body hasn't gone through into the presence of God yet. Okay. So then the angel comes in, grabs the church. That's when our bodies, our souls, our spirit, we're put one together just like Jesus. We become now like Jesus. We have a physical eternal body, but hallelujah, we're like him, eternal. Then we're taken up into the place of prayer. And we saw that there the angel was given mush incense to burn and that was the prayers of the saint. And as this is throwing up into the altar, we are taken into the presence of God almighty. But we see in Zechariah that next to the manura there were two olive trees. We know that these two olive trees are the two witnesses because we read that in revelation chapter 11 chapter 12. It says the two olive trees that you saw are the two that stand witness before the presenc “Explore our Biblical Video Teachings Library Part 1 ” “Explore our Biblical Video Teachings Library Part 2 ” “Explore our Biblical Written Teachings Library ” “Explore our End Time Prophecy Teachings Library. ” “Explore our Deliverance Ministry Teachings Library. ” “Explore our Empowering Prayers Library. ” “Explore our Books and Manuals Resources. ” “See our Latest Teaching. ” www.houseoffaithministries.org

House of Faith Ministries (HoFM) updates this website often. Here's the latest teaching. LATEST TEACHING Top of Page COVERING OF THE BLOOD Presented by Minister Lisa Kane Published on 12.4.25 Objective: To reveal the divine power, purpose, and protection found in the sacrifice of Jesus’ blood, connecting the Old Testament Passover covering to the New Covenant finished work of Christ. This message equips believers to understand how the blood of Jesus shields them from the destroyer, empowers them to reject the voice of the thief, and positions them to walk in forgiveness, righteousness, and abundant life through faith in Christ. Synopsis: In The Covering of the Blood, Minister Lisa walks us through God’s unchanging pattern of protection and redemption—from the lamb’s blood brushed on the doorposts in Exodus to the precious blood Jesus shed on the cross for every believer today. We begin with the first Passover, where God instructed Israel to cover their homes with the blood of an innocent lamb. That blood stopped the destroyer in his tracks. It was a visible, outward covering—declaring, “This house belongs to God.” John the beloved later reveals the deeper fulfillment: Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. His blood becomes our covering. His sacrifice—poured out outside the gate—mirrors the blood applied on the outside of Israel’s homes. The message is clear: the blood of Jesus covers, protects, sanctifies, and separates us from the reach of the destroyer. Scripture identifies this destroyer as the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy. His access into our lives often comes through agreement—when we repeat his lies with our words. But when we agree with God’s Word, we close the door to the enemy’s influence and step under divine protection. As Psalm 17 declares, the word of God keeps us from the path of the destroyer. Through Jesus’ sacrifice—His side pierced, His blood and water poured out—we are forgiven, covered, blessed, and made righteous. The believer who stands under the blood can boldly say, “Not today, Satan.” The destroyer cannot cross the boundary of the blood. This message concludes with an invitation to receive the covering of Jesus’ blood personally through prayer—opening the door to forgiveness, protection, and new life. And from that moment forward, the believer can confidently declare: “Jesus, today is Your day over my life. Keep me whole.” Lesson in written form: Exodus 12:21-23 NKJV 21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Pick out and take lambs for yourselves according to your families, and kill the Passover lamb. 22 And you shall take a bunch of hyssop, dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. And none of you shall go out of the door of his house until morning. 23 For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians; and when He sees the blood on the [g ]lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and not allow the destroyer to come into your houses to strike you. In the Old Testament, blood sacrifices were necessary because Jesus, the lamb of God had not been sacrificed yet. Notice what the blood does…it’s prevents the destroyer from entering. John 1:29 NKJV 29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! Jesus represents the lamb of the Old Testament that used when Moses, following God’s leadership was leading the people out of Egypt. He died on the cross to cover us with His blood so that the destroyer will not destroy us. Hebrews 13:12-16 NKJV 12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might [c ]sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate. 13 Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach. 14 For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come. 15 Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, [d ]giving thanks to His name. 16 But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. The author of Hebrews makes an interesting point here. He’s stating the sacrifice Jesus made was outside the gate. Remember, the blood that placed on the doorposts and lintels…the blood was sprinkled on the outside, not the inside. The blood becomes an outside covering over us keeping us from being destroyed. Exodus 12:23 NKJV 23 For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians; and when He sees the blood on the [a ]lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and not allow the destroyer to come into your houses to strike you. So, who is the destroyer? John 10:10 NKJV 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. The thief is. Psalm 50:16-23 NKJV 16 But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth, 17 Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you? 18 When you saw a thief, you consented[c ] with him, And have been a partaker with adulterers. 19 You give your mouth to evil, And your tongue frames deceit. 20 You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son. 21 These things you have done, and I kept silent; You thought that I was altogether like you; But I will rebuke you, And set them in order before your eyes. 22 “Now consider this, you who forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, And there be none to deliver: 23 Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.” The thief is sneaky and can sound like someone to listen to or be influenced by, but in order for him to succeed, we need to give him permission with our words. When you agree with his lies, you are against God. Psalm 17:4 NKJV 4 Concerning the works of men, By the word of Your lips, I have kept away from the paths of the destroyer. But when you agree with God, you are kept from the destroyer. This is what the sacrifice of blood did for you and me. John 19:34 NKJV 34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out. Jesus poured out His blood and covered us. Psalm 32:1-2 NKJV Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. 2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not [b ]impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit. Romans 4:5-8 NKJV 5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, 6 just as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works: 7 “Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, And whose sins are covered; 8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin.” Do you need the destroyer to stop interfering in your life? The time is now to ask Jesus to forgive you and to cover you with His blood. It’s easy. Say this prayer out loud: Dear Jesus, I’m sorry. I messed up and I ask You to forgive me of my sins and to cover me with Your blood. Keep the destroyer away from me. In Jesus’ Name Amen! Now, and from this day forward, you can say out loud – not today Satan, and he must flee. And after saying that, I would say too: Jesus, today is Your day over my life. Keep me whole. “Explore our Biblical Video Teachings Library Part 1 ” “Explore our Biblical Video Teachings Library Part 2 ” “Explore our Biblical Written Teachings Library ” “Explore our End Time Prophecy Teachings Library. ” “Explore our Deliverance Ministry Teachings Library. ” “Explore our Empowering Prayers Library. ” “Explore our Books and Manuals Resources. ” www.houseoffaithministries.org

< Back KNOW THAT I AM GOD Minister Lisa Kane February 20, 2022 Objective: The objective of this message is to remind believers and non-believers alike that God’s sovereignty is absolute, His prophecies are certain, and His call for repentance is urgent. It seeks to awaken listeners to the reality of God’s presence, the consequences of persistent unfaithfulness, and the hope of belonging to His righteous remnant through repentance, faith, and obedience. Synopsis: This teaching, rooted in Psalm 46:10 (“Be still, and know that I am God”), emphasizes that every nation and individual will ultimately recognize the authority of the Lord. Lisa Kane draws from the book of Ezekiel, highlighting how God repeatedly declares, “Know that I am the Lord,” underscoring the urgency of this truth. She examines Ezekiel 14 and 5 to illustrate how persistent unfaithfulness brings divine judgments—sword, famine, pestilence, and wild beasts—judgments still relevant to modern nations today. The message warns that false worship, idolatry, and misplaced trust in worldly systems mirror the sins of ancient Israel, leading to famine, division, pestilence, and societal decay. Current global events, such as shortages, pestilence, and political unrest, are viewed as prophetic warnings that God’s word is being fulfilled. Yet amidst judgment, God preserves a remnant of faithful believers who provide comfort and a living witness to His truth. Lisa stresses that repentance is the key to activating faith and righteousness. Without turning from sin, nations and individuals face God’s judgments and the torments described in Revelation. The sermon closes with a heartfelt call to repent, receive Christ as Savior (Romans 10:9), and live righteously so that one’s name is written in the Book of Life. The core message: whether now in faith or later in judgment, every person will come to know that He is God. Inspired Teaching: Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kane. I'm recording this on Sunday, February 20th, 2022. This message is called Know That I Am God. Amen. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we lift up this message to your throne room and just ask for your blessing upon it, your anointing on it. Let us receive ble uh believe and heed your word father god so that we walk with your word walk in righteousness and give you the glory the honor the praise and the strength thank you heavenly father in the glorious name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Know that I am God. Let's get started here. And our opening scripture is Psalm 46:10. Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth. That is prophecy. And that prophecy is going to come true. So if you take a look at today's earth though, you will see that no, it's not currently coming out. Uh you don't see a lot of people praising, worshiping the Lord. Um there's a lot more people than we think, believe you me, but there are people who are against God. Uh, I remember watching this video a few months ago, might be six months ago now, but two guys were preaching on the the street corner. You know, something I grew up with. People preaching on street corners was a normal thing. But this gal was there standing there and she was um blaspheming God in all reality. Anyways, as the video went on, she went across the street and she got hit by a car. Now, she's fine. She survived and and it wasn't a bad accident. But the idea behind that is, you know, God is real. And I I think this generation that we have right now, it doesn't know that or doesn't see it. But in a way, we know deep within ourselves. We know we shouldn't be doing certain things. We have this line that we don't cross. So, yeah, we know it. We just might not be acting on it or following through with it. But it it's time that we know who God is. And because if you realize what God is doing, everything toward the end here has to do with everyone's going to know who God is. Watch this. This is very I want to show you something. So the phrase know that I am God in Ezekiel alone says know that I am the Lord is found 64 times in the book of Ezekiel. And of course it's found 96 times throughout the entire Bible. If you hear a message like that or those words that many times that means it's important. So we need to look at that in more depth. So, I'm going to show you some interesting scriptures here. And believe you me, the book of Ezekiel is one of the most fascinating books around. And I know that a lot of people have been focusing on chapters 38 and 39 due to rumors of war, Ukrainian and and Russia and all that that's taking place right now. So, um, I've been studying the book of Ezekiel and I'm looking at chapters 5 and 14. I want you to see this. So, we're going to start here in chapter 14 and we're going to read verses 12- 14. The word of the Lord came again to me saying, "Son of man, when a land sins against me by persistent unfaithfulness," now faith is what moves God, right? Persistent unfaithfulness means you are not activating God. So whether you're a believer or not, you're just not activating God in his um you know what you need to be moving by faith, which is repentance. You repent by faith. You believe in God for your healing, your miracles by faith. That there is an activation of faith. It's it's a hope for something that you just don't know is going to happen or you you you everything looks like it's not going to happen, but in reality, it ends up happening because God is God. And this is how you know who God is. So persistent unfaithfulness when a land sins. Now he is talking about Jerusalem and he is talking about what was going on in that time frame. But this is prophecy for what's happening in well I want to say the entire world. Okay? Not just the United States. Watch this. So persistent unfaithfulness. I will stretch out my hand against it. I will cut off its supply of bread, send famine on it, and cut off man and beast from it. I want to pause there for a moment. Let's take a look at what's happening with Canada and what the truckers are attempting to do. Now, they're fighting for freedom. They're saying no mandates and that they're trying to cut off the supply to Canada. Now, there are other roads and other ways to get around. They only blocked a couple of bridges and I don't know exactly how many people were involved with this, but it sounds like a few hundred, but not enough to really make the impact. But the fact that this rose up is a warning sign to say to Canadians and again to the United States because look at our shelves right now. Look what CO did to the grocery store shelves. Bare. Everything is bare. So these are all tailtale signs of warnings that we need to heed and watch out for. Persistent unfaithfulness is causing this. So now I'm going to show you what another factor is of this because again we're not repenting. We're not activating faith in God. Look what else he says here. Because you know for a believer we're looking at this going, "Okay, come on guys. Get the word. Receive the word. You got to repent. God is real." And I'm doing my part. But are people hearing? Watch what God says. This is absolutely incredible. Verse 14. Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, all three men are declared righteous by God. Noah, Daniel, and Job are righteous men by God. Now look at this. Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, were in the land, they would deliver only themselves by their righteousness, says the Lord God. Uhoh. So now, but because we've had this persistent unfaithfulness, you are seeing, you're not seeing the revivals, you are not seeing the repentance take place. You are seeing the tailtale signs of God moving in. But there is a remnant. There is a group of people that are righteous. He described them as Noah, Daniel, and Job. But there are other righteous people that God calls righteous. and they may be in the land, but they're not saving people. And this is because of persistent unfaithfulness. Now, let's continue on a little further down in chapter 14. And I encourage you to read Ezekiel 14 and Ezekiel chapter 5. These two chapters coincide with one another. Watch this in the uh verses 21- 23. For thus says the Lord God, how much more it shall be when I send my four severe judgments on Jerusalem, the sword and famine and wild beasts and pestilence to cut off man and beast from it. Now these four judgments play a huge role in unfaithful persistence. I am telling you or persistence, unfaithfulness. Watch how these four judgments play a role in a country, in a nation, in the land. And here he is again talking about Jerusalem, but this is applicable to what we're dealing with today. And again, I'm talking worldwide, not just America. Uh going to verse 22. Yet behold, there shall be left in it a remnant who will be brought out, both sons and daughters. Surely they will come out to you, and you will see their ways and their doings. Then you will be comforted concerning the disaster that I have brought upon Jerusalem, all that I have brought upon it. And they will comfort you when you see their ways and their doings. And you shall know that I have done nothing without cause that I have done in it, says the Lord God. So here we do have a role. We are now comforting non-believers. We are comforting them because we're standing in faith. We're still acting evading our faith which declares us righteous. And as we stand, this remnant stands in faith and we activate our righteousness. People are seeing it. They're not repenting. They're not believing, but we are providing comfort for them. Now, this is a again a nation or a land, the world coming into a place that God has deemed, okay, these are your last warning signs because these are these are big. These are going to really impact the world and they're There's a huge impact to this, but it sounds like what he's saying is that no one's going to be repenting and that it there is no return. I mean, repentance is the key to this. You repent. Things will change drastically, but you're not repenting. You're being comforted, but you're not be repenting. So, watch what is going to happen here. Again, more prophecy. I want you to see this. This is uh more in Ezekiel. Uh we're now in chapter 5. Look at verses 11 and 12. Therefore, as I live, says the Lord God, surely because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your detestable things and with all your abominations. I got to pause here. Unfaithful persistence, unfaithfulness, and de putting detestable things in their temple. Now, let's look at Jerusalem at that moment. I want to pause here before I read the rest of that scripture. I want you to see something here. They were putting in idols. A a regular a temple that was non-Jewish were putting in all these little idols in their temples. So their temples had these fake gods and idols, statues that were put in it. You see that in history. You see that through Greek and Roman history. They had these statues even of um the Caesars and whatnot. They put those statues up because they were worshiping those statues. That was their god. So these detestable abomination things were put in their temple. So let's take a look at today. What are we putting in our temple today? Because see what the Israelites did is they saw Jerusale they saw that they their temple had no God in it because they can't see their God. God takes faith. It takes a faith to believe in God. You can't see him. You can hope and know that he's there. And when you do believe, by the way, you will find out that he is uh real. Amen. Excuse me here. Okay. So now, uh, what you're seeing is what are we doing here in America that we're putting in these false gods? Earth worship. What mandates and laws are they putting in besides the COVID thing? Going green. We got to save the earth. You see, what they're doing is they're saying, "God, we got it. We don't need you. We're going to take the earth back from you, not give you the glory for creating it because we're going to push evolution. We're also going to say we have got to put these laws in place so that people are forced to conserve water, forced to conserve energy because you you can't have it because the earth is more important. In fact, you're the pestilence, the people, the humans are. And we really need to focus on population control. Our government is pushing for this. And I'm going to tell you right now, we should be at war with whoever released CO and they didn't do that because it successfully killed a lot of people. The earth is better off with less people. That's their mentality. That's what America is doing. That's the God we're worshiping today here in America for that matter. That is a a worldwide agenda. So, let's look further because God dealt with Israel and is going to finish dealing with Israel in regards to their sin and what they did with the temple and what they did when they um re uh rejected or rebuked the Sabbaths. This is why there's seven years left in tribulation that the Israelites have to deal with. But let's finish reading the scripture because I want you to see this. So therefore, as I live, says the Lord God, surely because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your detestable things and with all your abominations, therefore I will also diminish you. Stop here again. Diminish you. You think the US is going to be around when all this hell breaks loose? A lot of people ask that question. Where's the United States in the Bible? Well, here we are at the brink of so diminish you. Let's go back finish reading the scripture. My eye will not spare, nor will I have any pity. Onethird of you shall die of the pestilence and be consumed with famine in your midst. And one third shall f fall by the sword all around you and I will scatter another third to all the winds and I will draw out a sword after them. Okay, remember we're dealing with four judgments here. So we're going to talk about those judgments here. But if you look at what he's talking about 1/3 that is what's happening or going to happen in the revelation time. Now we do know that a lot of people have died here from CO and that's a pestilence in the land and um I couldn't tell you if it's one-third of the population. I doubt it is because I think we would be feeling more of an impact of that. But I'm telling you that prophecy is going to happen. So, I want to look at these four judgments because again, if you're not repenting, you have this persistent unfaithfulness. Then, it is time that you realize what you're going to be dealing with. Because, see, when you play with the devil, you live in sin because it feels good. And you're like, well, if I just go to my deathbed, I'm going to be fine. Well, these people aren't repenting and they're going to be left here on earth for a hell on earth that is not even going to be compared to the real hell. And I don't wish it on anybody. Unfortunately, it's up to you. Again, God is a perfect gentleman. He's not going to control you. He doesn't force mandates on you. Okay? Just just saying we have a perfect God here and he is letting you choose. You have to decide what you want to do. And again, I'm still pushing for repentance. Whether you believe in repentance or not is up to you. But I am trying to comfort you with the word of God and trying to show you where this is going to go. You do have blinders on. You may need to ask God to remove those blinders from you. So let's look at these four judgments. We first have the sword in the Strong's Hebrew dictionary. The number is 2719. The word is kareb. And I know I'm butchering the sound of that. My apologies. Uh it is coming from the root word 2717 which means drought. But look it, it also includes a cutting instrument from its destructive effect. Axe, dagger, knife, maddox, sword, drought. Oh, this is so interesting. What's California dealing with? You know, here in Cal, I live in Southern California. I am praying for California. I have been hoping to see people repent and turn from their wicked ways, but they're not living in righteousness. And they're still claiming drought. And as long as you continue to declare that God is giving you exactly what you want, shut your mouth and declare blessings on California and the drought may go away. But this is a sword. A sword has the effect of a cut, a tear, a wound that you may not even survive from. What's a drought? A drought is something you can't survive. You cannot live without water. We're human. We have to have water. Okay, so that's one of the judgments. Look at the next judgment. Pestilence. Oh my goodness. Strong's Hebrew dictionary number 1698. The word is debear from 16. The root word is 1696. In the sense of destroying, pestilence, plague, destroying. How many people how many people's lives were destroyed? Not just death for an individual, but the loved ones and the friends and the family who are suffering from grief now and who had blinders on are saying, "God, what's going on? Why'd you let the devil do this?" God is saying, "You let the sin in. You've been playing with sin and I'm trying to get you to come in house and clean up. You didn't want to come in. You're not repenting. I have to bring in these things to get your attention." And all of these things are spoken of in Revelation, which is what we're leading into, which is the seven years of Israel. The the the thing that Israel has to finish dealing with. And that's not for us Gentiles. But if you're not going to believe, you got to go through it. And I'm going to tell you right now, for Israel to deal with it there, he's going to seal 144,000 of them. If you're not Israel, you're not sealed. You are in big trouble. Let's look at another. We got four judgment. We just talked about two. Let's look at the famine. Strong's Hebrew dictionary is number 7458. The word is ra and it's from the root word 7456. And look at this. Hunger more or less extensive. Dirt, famine, famished. How many people in this world are not getting fed? We know that hunger is a big problem. Has been for years actually, especially in third world countries. But if you take a look at our bare shelves and and it's kind of a mystery as to why they're bare. I mean, people have a lot of uh reasoning behind it. People out sick with COVID, people not working. There's there's a labor shortage going on. Um and of course now the truckers doing what they're doing, which is I support no mandates. No mandates. Uh but at the same time, you know, this is a spiritual matter that God is trying to send a message to whoever is willing to hear. All right, let's look at the fourth judgment, the wild beast. This is Strong's Hebrew dictionary number 24:16. The word is ki from the root word 24:21. Now, this word is beast and it's called alive. It's an alive beast, a raw flesh, a living creature, a thing like fresh plant, water, year. I don't know why it calls it that, but that's what it does. But look it in Ezekiel 5:17 in the King James version. So I will send upon you famine and evil beasts. So new King James called it wild beast. King James called it evil beast. So evil living creatures and they shall berve you and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee. And I will breathe the sword upon thee. I the Lord have spoken it again. Persistent unfaithfulness and these four judgments are coming. And I am telling you, you look what Revelation says. Again, I'm only sharing the scripture. I'm not here doing the fire and brimstone type of message. I'm telling you because you're not living righteously. You're not repenting. You are under blinders. And as long as you're not getting right with God, this is the consequences of playing with the devil. Look at what happens in Revelation. Again, prophecy coming, but we see it being filled right now. So, here's the rest of it coming. Revelation 9:3-5. And again, I'm in the King James version here. And there came out of the smoke locust upon the earth, and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. Remember, 144,000 are going to be sealed. Those are the Israelites. You're not an Israelite. You're not pure because these are pure men that God has set aside for this time. If you don't fall in that category, you're going to be stung by these scorpion locust things. a living creature, the wild beast coming in. It's a prophecy. Look at verse 5. And to them it was given that they should not kill them. So these beasts are not going to kill you, but that they should be tormented five months. And their torment was at the tor as the torment of a scorpion when he striketh a man. Wow. Yep. So let's see if we get that right. for 5 months, you're going to get stung and you're going to say, "I can't live with this. I'm going to try to kill myself." There's scripture that tells you there will be no death for five months. You're stuck suffering through it. You won't get the way out like Hitler did when his regime ended. He killed himself. You won't even get that pleasure. Play with the devil. This is what happens. Now look at what is else is going to happen because now we're going to speak to the leaders of the world because I want you to see this is again pro prophecy coming in and the the message is know that I am God. The whole point of this is so that you would see that he's God. He's in control. Look at this in Revelation 6 14-1 17. Now I'm back in the New King James Version. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. And the kings of the earth, great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave, and every man hid themselves in the caves, in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the lamb, for the great day of his wrath has come, and who is able to stand." So God says, "I I need you to know who I am." Okay? So you you're not getting the hint. You're not getting the message. So as soon as this moment comes, you've got all these leaders living in caves. God's going to remove the sky. He's going to scroll it up, put it on a shelf, and he's going to look down on the earth, and everybody who is here is going to look up, and they're going to see and know that he is God. But notice the rejection that the meni the leaders of the world men and women they continue to reject them telling the mountains fall on us fall on us. Kill us and they ain't going to do it. But every mountain and island does get moved. There's a great earthquake that happens there. So you can look at the timing. Read all of this. You're going to be fascinated. I don't have time to go into all of that. I'm trying to show you this message of know who God is because you need to know because he's going to reveal himself to you one way or another. It's up to you how you want to see him. You want to see him like that or you want to say, you know what, I'm going to activate faith and just know that he's there. Give him the glory and the honor, repent and live righteously. I, you know, I think that's the best and easiest way to go personally. So, but I want you to see something here, too. You know, God is giving everybody time. Look what he says to the churches in Revelation 2:21-23. And I gave her time to repent over sexual immorality. Now, I want you to see something there. He is talking to that particular church about sexual immorality. But in all reality, he is talking about giving time to anyone in any sin. Okay? You live in sin, you play with the devil, then he's giving you time to repent. He always does that. He has been doing that. that time does come to an end. But watch what he says here. And she did not repent. And see, he gives you all this time. You have had time. You have had messages that have been taught to you to repent. You've been told. In all reality, I'm telling you, you've been told. You rejected him. So when you reject, watch what happens. Indeed, I will cast her into a sick bed. Did you get sick with COVID? Well, I did. I did. You know, God was talking to me. He explained some things to me. I knew what was going on. That's another thing is, you know, let's not let's let's not beat around the bush. We know what we're doing. Play with the devil into a sick bed and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation unless they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children with death. You know, a lot of people that are trying to have children after they got their vaccine are experiencing um miscarriages and the number is extremely high. It's gone up something like 300 to 500%. I am begging you to repent. You want children, repent. Children is a blessing from God. But for whatever sin you're living in, God removes your children if he needs to. says, "I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am he who searches the minds and hearts, and I will give to each one of you according to your works." This is coming, folks. Judgment is coming. You have to ask yourself, okay, what do I do? And right now is repent. You need to repent. And the word repent there is not just to ask God to forgive you of your sins, but to turn from your wicked ways. You see, instead of worshiping the earth and putting that as a priority, I beg you to put God first. He is in charge of the earth. He's the one who created it. It Yeah, it's messed up right now. Sin has come in and done its job. The devil did its job. He did a fantastic job. We want to give kudos where kudos goes, but in reality, we allowed that. So now it's time to repent because you're going to have to pay your dues to the devil and to God for the things that you did. So we got to understand what this means. God's giving you time. He says, "I need you to know who I am." And and another way to look at it is not only does he need you to know who he is, he needs to know who you are. Does he know you? Does he know your name? I mean, he knows in the general sense, but is your name written in the book of life? Oh, my friend, Jesus says in John 14:16, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me." There's no other way. You can be as good as you like for um good things, be happy and content, but you're not living righteously righteously. God needs you to be righteous, to be protected, and to save yourself from these perilous times that we live in. because the nations in the world are living in persistent unfaithfulness. But you don't have to. You can be a part of the remnant that comforts others by living in righteousness. And it starts with repentance. To repent, it's very simple. Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Let's pray that prayer. Pray it with me. Say this out loud. Dear Jesus, I ask you to forgive me of my sins and come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. and I ask you to help me live righteously and to give you the glory you so richly deserve in the name of Jesus. Amen. That's your first step in knowing who God is and him knowing who you are. you get that name written in the book. And um you know and and people who aren't living righteously, who have called on God, who have repented, all it takes is one time. Their name is written in the book. The problem is is that if you're not living righteously, you can't save yourself in th this particular time frame. So there is a distinct difference. Okay? It's like the parable of the 10 virgins. They're all the same believers in Christ. It's the church. 50% went in the rapture. 50% did not. So ask yourself, well, okay, are you going to be deceived by the world and fall into worshiping the earth or any other god we put up here, you know, abortions and what have you. These are things that the nations went in the direction of. But you, the individual, can stand separately and stand righteously and be saved. And those people are the ones that God is going to take. Prophecy is coming true. We are now seeing the rumors of wars and wars. This is in Matthew 24, Luke 21. We are seeing the pestilences and the famines and the droughts and the sword coming into play. The wild beasts aren't here yet, but they're coming. It's been prophesied. So, I'm not saying that this is going to be the resolve end all if everybody repents, but it can hold things off. God can change things, but his prophecy stands true. Meaning, this is going to happen either way we look at it eventually, whether it's in our lifetime or not. So, I am begging you to stand with God and to know who he is because you're going to see him one way or another. And you will know who he is one way or the other. It's a question of when and how. Amen. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we lift up this message to your throne room and just ask for your blessing upon it. Open up our ears to hear. Open up our hearts and minds to receive and believe. And let us heed your word and find out who you are and get to know you before we see your face in the sky. Thank you, Father God. In the glorious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. God bless each and every one of you and I will see you in the next video. Bye-bye. Previous Next

< Back CLEANSING INIQUITY Minister Lisa Kane November 3, 2023 Objective: The objective of this message is to teach believers how to confront, repent of, and be cleansed from iniquity through humility, lamentation, and acknowledgment before God. Using Psalm 51 as the foundation, the message emphasizes that true deliverance comes not from outward sacrifices, but from a broken and contrite heart that seeks God’s forgiveness and restoration. Synopsis: In Cleansing Iniquity, Minister Lisa Kane explores the deep spiritual process of repentance and purification through David’s prayer in Psalm 51, written after his sin with Bathsheba and the death of Uriah. The message highlights how sin not only impacts the individual but also carries generational consequences. David’s brokenness before God serves as a model for believers: he cries out, acknowledges his sin, and surrenders his heart fully to the Lord. Lisa teaches that cleansing iniquity requires crying out to God, allowing Him to “wash” and “agitate” the hidden parts of the soul, and acknowledging both personal and generational sins. She explains the spiritual “courtroom” where Satan accuses, but Jesus stands as our advocate, granting forgiveness when we repent. Through David’s transformation from guilt to restored joy, we see how God desires a contrite heart rather than ritual sacrifice. The message closes by affirming that no sin is too great for God’s cleansing—whether murder, adultery, bitterness, or addiction. When we humble ourselves, lament, and seek God’s presence, He restores joy, liberty, and deliverance. Believers are then called to testify and teach others how to return to God, turning brokenness into praise. Inspired Teaching: Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kane. I'm recording this on Friday, November 3rd, 2023. Welcome. This message is called Cleansing Iniquity. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word. We thank you for your presence and your glory upon us. Father God, we thank you for teaching us your word. We teach we thank you for teaching us how to be cleansed and purified before you, how to humble ourselves, how to lament and cry out to you. Father God, we thank you for your living word and we thank you for everything you're doing and preparing us for these marvelous end times that are taking place. In the wonderful, glorious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. This message is called Cleansing Iniquity. We have been talking about deliverance now for a handful of weeks and I'm going to continue in that direction as long as the Lord continues to um send me in that direction. So, what I'm going to be teaching on is Psalm 51. So, if you want to get your Bibles open and get ready for that, we're going to be looking at verses 1-1 17 in detail. I want to do what I've been doing where I bold the word and in parentheses next to it in italicize I put in other words that the bolded word could have been translated into giving you more of a deeper meaning as to what that the original script was meant for us in the name of Jesus. Amen. So, I hope you are blessed by this. Um I got my tissue next to me. You're going to want to have some tissue next to you on this one. So, let's go to uh the beginning here. Um Psalm 51 1-17. So, let me lay down a background. At the top of the New King James Version, it does say to the chief musician of Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him after he had gone into Ba Sheba, which is Uriah's wife. So, let me explain why David wrote this psalm because this is very, very powerful. So David was supposed to be in military with his men and he was home in luxury relaxing while his men fought for him. While he was looking out out on his balcony or wherever he was, he looked down and he sees Bath Sheba bathing on the rooftop. And uh basically he falls for her. He um she's married, but they have an affair. She gets pregnant. So, David decides to have Uriah come back from the battleground so that he can sleep with his wife. But Uriah is a man of God, a righteous man. He is um he has good morals about him. In other words, is what I'm trying to say here. He wanted to sleep in the barracks, not with his wife because his men, his um partners in the battlefield. They weren't in luxury and he didn't want to give himself a night of luxury and rest that they had. He wanted he was in battle and he was wanting to stay in battle. So David's plan that he thought he'd pawn off his own son under Uriah and Beth Sheba's um relationship didn't go well. So Uriah is given a letter by David and Uriah takes that letter and gives it to his commander. Doesn't read it. And the ba basically the letter tells the commander to put Uriah in the most difficult thicket battle you can ever be in. And Uriah goes in there and he's killed. Okay. So in essence, David killed Uriah. So he takes Basheba as his wife and she carries the baby. The baby is born, but the baby is born sick. So David, two things happens to him. Nathan the prophet comes to him and tells him about this guy who took this one sheep from this one person. And David's like, "Who is that? We got to stop him." And Nathan says, "That's you. That's what you did to Bath Sheba and Uriah." And David broke. You see, he had a sin in front of him now and it was exposed. No more in secret. So, he broke. On top of it, the baby is sick. And David, he's he's lamenting before the Lord. He's crying to the Lord. He's wearing um you know, he's torn his clothes. He's wearing sackcloth. He's got ash over him. He is sobbing for the Lord to heal and restore the little one, the baby, his son, and God allowed the baby to die and took the baby home. Want you to understand several things here. One is that your sin has consequences not just to you but to those around you. So if you are here, your grandparents, your your your parents, your grandparents, your great-grandparents, all their sins came on you. Your sins go to your children, your grandchildren, and your great-grandchildren. They're all connected for generations, back and forward. And this is what you see here with David. His son was affected. And if you wonder sometimes why babies die earlier early or as a baby, this is one reason. There are several reasons. God God is in control. We may not understand it, but we need to be in obedience about it. One of the things that David did here that did he showed after he realized, you know, the baby's dead. There's nothing he can do about it. He cleans himself up, asked for some food, and he transforms himself completely. He's just back to normal. And I mean the servants were worried about him. They thought, "Man, this guy's breaking. He's lost. He's he's done for." And they were scared because they see this radical transformation. And David realizes what's going on and he says to them, "I was hoping God would leave the child with me, but he didn't. He took him. The child's not coming back to me, but I will be going to the child. You see, David understood that God has the children in the palm of his hands. All the children are taken care of, they are under the age of accountability. And as long as they're under that age, God takes care of them for whatever reason. Okay? So here, God chose to show David your sin did this. And and here's the thing. David's a king. This did not have to be written in the books. It might have been in the Chronicles. If you understand the way the scriptures are written, you got 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Chronicles, 2 Chronicles, 1 Kings, 2 Kings. Chronicles is written from God's point of view. Would have probably been written in Chronicles. But it might not have been in Kings if David didn't want to have this exposed. It was up to David. But David had this written down and documented for a reason, so that you and I could see the consequence of sin, iniquity, which is what we're going to be dealing with in this message. So, David allowed this to go forth. He humbled himself before the Lord. Um, and even though he lost his child, he realized God still healed him. God delivered him, cleansed him, and purified him of being a murderer and an adulterer. That is absolutely incredible. So whatever sin or iniquity that you have in your life, whether is bound by drugs, whether you killed someone, whether you cursed someone thinking they should be dead and you told the world they should be dead, anything like that, that's a sin. That's an iniquity that you have in you and that causes consequences to occur in your life and those around you. Those need to be taken care of if you want to break forth and go forward. You got to break them forth in the generational line to your grand great-grandparents and to your great grandchildren. Even if they're not born yet, you want to deal with that now because God is the God of today. Which that means he was a God of today yesterday. He's a God of today tomorrow. it. Timing here is in the spirit, not the physical. So I want you to understand that as we delve into this. So you can see now David writes this psalm in this situation that he dealt with and he humbled himself before the Lord. And that is what I'm going to teach on is cleansing the iniquity. All right, let's go to verse one. He says, "Have mercy upon me, oh God, according to thy loving kindness, according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions." Okay, now let's look at it with all the extra translations. It could have been translated as, "Bend or stoop in kindness to me, oh God, according to your piety and favor, according to the multitude of thy compassions, erase my revolt and rebellion." David cried out to God. That's the first thing you want to do when you're dealing with iniquity and you want to cleanse it. You cry out to God. Second, look at verse two. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. Now, when you cry out to God, what are you saying? Okay, let's look at it in other the other words. Trample stamping with feet. The reason that word wash is translated with that other translation because in the past they didn't have washing machines. They had to trample on the clothes, hit them against the rocks. Current washing machines today. Agitate things. That is what David's asking God to do to agitate him. By the way, when you're cleansing iniquity, you're going to see agitation. Irritable. People get irritated because they're being trampled and stomped on by the Holy Spirit. Oh, so look at this in more detail. Trample, stamp, stomp me with your feet thoroughly from my perversity, my fault, my evilness. Make me bright and pure from my offense or habitual sin. You see, this is what David is crying out. He's saying, "Lord Jesus, I need you to agitate me. I need you to make me bright and pure again. and I need you to re-establish me. I need you. And he's saying out of offense, he's saying evil fault. That word there, iniquity, is a fault. Let me explain this part to you. This is very, very important that you understand this. There is God and he is in his courtroom. There is Jesus right next to him. The devil is over here, the accuser. He's on the other platform and he's accusing you of everything and he has the right to do that. But Jesus is saying, "Well, I'm going to forgive you of your iniquity if you repent." David is repenting. So, you can picture David standing there and Jesus who hadn't died on the cross yet. That's okay because this is his great greatgrandfather. And remember, God is a God of today, which meant he was a God of today, yesterday. He's a God of today, tomorrow. So, there's Jesus with David before God. And Jesus says, "I forgive him." God says, "Okay, he's forgiven." And he washes it off. And the devil's he's trying to accuse you. Guess what, though? God made it possible for us to be redeemed of our iniquity. We do not have to live with that iniquity. Let it break us, but let us get rid of that grief. Let us lament it out, whail it out as David did. He cried out to God and he is going to acknowledge this. He's saying what I need is your cleansing, your purification. So this is the beginning. He cried out to God and then he's saying saying, "God, I need you." That's with his cry and I need you to purify me. That's part of his crying out. And you see he's at that throne room. He boldly went to the throne room. Angels are there. Devils are there. The God is there. Jesus is there. and he's saying, "Help me to the throne room of God." And Jesus says, "I got you." But now, let's look and see what David also does because it's very important because we're dealing with iniquity. I want you to see the whole transaction that takes place in this courtroom of God. So, here he says, "For I acknowledge my transgressions and my sin is ever before me." This is so powerful. David is saying, "Look, I see what I did. I'm messed up." Look at how he says it. He says, "I recognize my rebellion, my revolt, and my sin is ever before me." He's not going to forget what he did. He's not going to forget the son that he had out of that because he's looking forward now to seeing his son in the future. But he sees this sin. Look what else he does. Because he's acknowledging. So there's a cry out. There's an acknowledgment. Now he's saying, "But I acknowledge against thee. Thee only have I sinned and done this evil in thy sight, that thou might just be justified when thou speakest and be clear when thou judges." As you can see, we are in a courtroom. The devil has accused and rightfully so. And God is saying, "Yep, you've done that." But Jesus comes in and he says, "I forgive him." And God says, "Yep, okay, blot it out. That sin is forgiven. It's no longer here. I can't, you know, I see the blood of Jesus now. I don't see the sin. That's what God does." And the devil's like, "You can't do that." This is the This is the way that God has designed for you and I to be saved today. This is what is called grace. This is why we need to repent to Jesus. This is why we need to get to his throne room. We need to get to the courtroom and we need to say sorry. And look what uh is going on here. He says, "I'm recognizing my rebellion." Because see he that's you know he rebelled against God when he was standing on that rooftop looking down at Basheba instead of being where he was supposed to be. He was supposed to be with his military and he wasn't. He rebelled. You see how simple of rebellion could be? I'm going to take tonight off and I'm not going to do anything. I'm going to have just a night to myself. I'm not going to pray. I'm not going to do anything. Okay, I'm going to turn on the the TV and rebellion, revolt. Yes, you're guilty of that. And that sin is right there. But he took it that further. He actually acted on the sin and then he because he had adulter and then he murdered the guy. Poor Uriah. You know, I really feel sorry for this man who's served his king. This is a sin. This is an iniquity that David did against another person, but God. This is why you and I can take all of our iniquities and lay him at the throne room, acknowledge them, and cry out to God, lament, let it go, and ask Jesus to forgive. Let's continue on. And notice he did this against God. He sinned against God because see he knew where he was supposed to be and all of the other stuff, the murder and the adultery was a consequence of him rebelling against God. He did it against God. And look at he says, "I did this against you and you only." And look at that. He only means part of the body, the branch of a tree. You see, we are part of God. He is our father. We are an inheritor, an adopted inheritor of his kingdom. We are brothers and sisters with Jesus. David is a family member of that. We are part of this family. And he says to God, "You're my father and I sinned against you and you only and I did this calamity in your sight." And so you're right. You're justified. You're right when you say you arrange this courtroom the way it is and you judge me and you pronounce sentence. You have the right to judge me and convict me and find me guilty because I am guilty as charge. Look what else he says though. This is David going even further because now we're going to be dealing with the generational things. Watch this. He says, "Behold, I was shapen in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me." He went all the way to his conception. At the moment of conception, every human being is born in sin because of what Adam and Eve did. Who were born into a curse automatically at conception. It is the grace of God that saves each and every one of us. So he's saying, listen, I was shaping as I grew up after being born. I was twisted and whirled in iniquity, in perversity, fault and sin. And I committed crimes and I have penalties against me because of my mother and what she did. But it goes back to her mother, her mother, father, father, all the way to Adam and Eve. So he's saying, "Okay, Father God, I'm acknowledging my sin. I sinned against you. I'm crying out to you and I'm going all the way back to Adam and Eve with my lament." Because he is broken. He is crying. He's seeing his iniquity. Watch. Watch how he sees his behold thou desire. I'm going to get to the part where he God, you're going to see him broken here in a moment, but look at what he says here. Behold, thou desireest truth in the inward parts and in the hidden part, thou shalt make me to know wisdom. Now, he's going to the deep utter part of his inward parts of his body. This is where things are going to break. He's saying, "I need these inward parts fixed." Look what he says. You desirous, you inclined, you delight in the truth, which is the stability, the certainty in the inward parts. He wants truth, certainty in our inward parts. He wants that inside. You desire that, Lord Jesus. You desire that. You're in the hidden area. You're repairing and you're keeping the hidden areas secret, but you're there because you desire to be there. You're inclining to look. Oh, look in. Let me look inside of you. This is God looking inside of you. Get that? He sees what's going on inside. And he says, "But you shall make me to know wisdom." You see, David is finally acknowledging you need to be inside here and let your wisdom come out of me. Let me know your wisdom because I need you. I need you. I'm messed up. And look at now he's saying, "Purge me with his thought and I shall be clean." You know, when he says, "I shall be clean," he is acknowledging God cleansing him already. Even though he is asking, he's acknowledging the cleansing already. And he says, "I shall be clean. Wash me. I shall be whiter than snow." Look at that word purge to miss, forfeit, repent me with hissop. Turn me around. Use your hissop to turn me around. That's the blood on the branch. Use the blood. Turn me around and I'll be bright and pure. There's that wash again. Agitate me. I'll be whiter than snow. Get me cleansed. He's saying, I need this. And he's saying to the deeper inward parts, do this. Look what else. Make me to hear intelligently, attentively, obedient, to joy and gladness, that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. See, he's acknowledging on the inside, my bones broke. They collapsed and I'm unable to hold myself up. He is weeping. He is lamenting so hard he cannot get back up. And he's calling it as bones broken in the spirit because he can't get up. But he's saying, "I want to hear cheerfulness, glee, gladness, because if I hear that, and if I'm obedient to that, and I'm attentive to that, my bones will have rejoice, they'll be able to stand on their own and spin around." That's what the word rejoice means. So, he is saying in the future, he is prophesying over himself, you're cleaning me. You're restoring the collapsed bones. I'm gonna have joy and I'm gonna have cheerfulness in me. Gladness, gladness and joy in me. It's all going to turn around and I'm going to be able to rejoice in the name of Jesus, the son of God. Oh, here's where you know he broke. Look at what he says here. Hide thy face from my sins. Cover your face. Don't look at this. I messed up. That's horrible. That's my crime. Hide your face. Don't look at that. Blotted out all my iniquities. Wipe it all out. This is him. This is the deep part of him saying, "Lord, don't look at that. I messed up. That's horrible." Then he says, "Create in me a clean heart, oh God, and renew a right spirit within me." Look at this. Create in me a pure, fair heart, oh God, and rebuild a right spirit in me. Rebuild me from the inward parts. And then he goes on to say, don't throw me away. Cast me not away from your presence, from your face, and take your not thy holy spirit from me. So stay with me. Don't look at this sin, but stay with me. I need you to stay with me. I need you to help me. I need you to help me. Don't look at my sin, but you look you just stay with me. Just don't look. Cover your eyes. Cover your face, but don't let me go. And he says, "Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation and uphold me with thy free spirit." He says, "Turn back. Turn back the joy to me of your salvation." That word salvation is deliverance, prosperity, liberty, safety. Why does that word deliverance mean all these things? Because we can do iniquity and sin to finances, not just sexual immorality, witchcraft. We could do some sort of iniquity to murder, lie, cheat, hating someone, bitterness. All of these things we can be delivered from with what you see David doing here. He says, "Turn back unto me that joy. Turn back unto me the joy of your deliverance, the joy of your prosperity, the joy of your liberty, liberty, the joy of safety." If you're in an immediate situation where you're not saved, Jesus save me. The moment you do that, you're saying, "Jesus, turn your safety back into me." And so, David is saying, "I understand I messed up here, and I'm asking your joy to come back into my heart of your salvation, of your deliverance, with, and look at this, with thy noble and reputable spirit, the free Holy Spirit." He says, "You are pure. You are noble. you are. I'm asking for your free spirit to be within me for the deliverance and the healing that I need from this iniquity that I committed. Then I then will I teach transgressors, sinners, that means thy ways, course of life. That's what that word ways mean. And sinners, criminals, and those that are guilty shall be converted unto thee. Here he is prophesying again. So he's saying now, Lord, cleanse me, heal me, bring back your salvation, deliver me, liberate me from what I did because I was guilty of it. And he's saying, I'm going to teach others how to do this so they can convert and turn back from their ways and get before the Lord. This is why David wrote it in the Kings. This is why David wrote it in the Psalms. This is why he shared what he did in his life. Even though it was a humiliating event, he lost a child as a result of this. But God taught David how to humble himself and be obedient to him. David chose God in spite of his iniquity. Oh my word, that is so powerful. He's going to teach them and they shall be converted back unto him. Oh, that is so holy. That is so awesome. That is incredible. Look at this. Snatch away me from blood guiltiness. Listen to this. That word blood guiltiness means when shed causes death. Meaning the shedding of blood causes someone to die. Well, Uriah bled to death. I don't know how he died on the field. I I just know that he died and I don't know if it was blunging, stabbed, I don't know, but he bled to death on that field. Um, and the reason I don't know is I haven't gone back and read it. There's some homework here. Go do go read this. Look up Uriah and look him up. Read him in this the Psalms. Excuse me. Yeah, read him in the Psalms. I think he's written in Psalms. Read him in the Chronicles, the Kings and 1 and 2 Samuel. I'm sure he's all in there. Read about him. Um, if he's not in the Samuels, he'll be in the uh Kings and the Chronicles for sure. But read about what David did here. Because I want you to understand when he says, "Deliver me from blood guiltiness. Snatch me away from that." Because there is a consequence to when you cause cause someone to bleed. And I want you to understand something. He caused someone to bleed to death in the physical. But your words could be causing somebody to die in the spiritual. If it is your responsibility to be praying for someone and they don't get healed because you're not praying for them, they they bled into death. this blood guiltiness is on your soul. This is why sometimes we don't see the power of God moving in certain people's lives. It's because they need to turn back from the iniquity of what they did. You know, I I recently have changed up my prayer life. First thing I said, Lord, I'm sorry. I wasn't praying like this initially. Yes, I prayed. Yes, I served God, but I wasn't praying like this. He's teaching me and I've been learning. So, I was doing it in ignorance, but I still apologize. It's called obedience because I want to make certain that when I go before the Lord and I'm praying these prayers that the devil ain't over here accusing me over and over again because God and Jesus has forgiven me, purified me, made me bright, and cleansed me because I went to the Lord and asked him to forgive the iniquity he found in me. And I forgave the iniquity, too. And whatever I forgive, he forgives. Oh, and and you can see that in the last few messages I just taught. Then he says, "Oh God, thou God and my salvation, my rescue. My tongue shall sing aloud. Shout of thy righteousness. Shout of thy justice." Now he can say, "Hey, devil, look what God did to me. Neer, neer." He could do this. He has a right to do it. He could do it to everybody else in the world. See what God did to me? He could do that to you, too. Let me show you. You see, now you have the right to do that in the name of Jesus, the son of God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. And then he says, "Oh Lord, open wide. Open my lips and my mouth shall show forth thy praise." He's going to bring it to the front the ludation of God. Look what he did. He forgave me of my iniquities. Oh, hallelujah. And then he goes back to saying, we're not done. We're in verse 16. For thou desireest not sacrifice, else would I give it. Thou delightest not in burnt offering. You see, David was living under burnt offerings and sacrifices at this time under the law. But he's recognizing that the law wasn't going to cleanse him here. The law doesn't cleanse you of iniquity. The law finds you guilty. But David said, "No, that's not what you want, Lord. I know you don't want that." He says, "What you want are the sacrifices of God are a broken or burst spirit, a broken and contrite or a collapsed heart. Oh God, thou will not despise or disdain that." You see, he wants your soul to lament, to break. When David said, "Don't look at my sin right in front of me, Father God. Cover your face." He broke. And when he broke, that's the sacrifice God desires. Yes, God desires your sacrifices of a broken, contrite, or collapsed heart. But notice, he asked the Holy Spirit to prop him up because that propped up heart is before the Lord because he he couldn't hold it up. Remember, he was broken. Good. Let's go back. uh restore, turn back into me the joy of thy salvation, deliverance, prosperity, liberty, safety, and uphold, prop, take hold of me with thy free, noble spirit. Prop me up, Lord, because my bones were broke. My heart collapsed. And God is saying, I will because that's what I desire. You have that broken spirit. Come with me. I'm going to lift you up. I'm going to prop you up. And then David was asking for the restoration of joy and gladness back into his heart because with that he can stand up on those broken bones, not feel the pain and rejoice because the Lord restored him. And the devil can't accuse him anymore of that iniquity and that sin that was found within him. Oh, hallelujah. This is a point in your life where you can choose to have your iniquity forgiven. And all it takes is cry out to God. Say, "I'm sorry, Lord. I did this and I did this against you and you only. I'm sorry. Acknowledge what you did. I did this, Father God. I cannot believe I not only rebelled and revolted against you by taking a slippery slope step, I slipped and fell and I made it worse by bringing a child into the life or whatever the situation is that you're dealing with. I made it worse. Let's think of it like drugs. I make it worse every time I take more than I did the day before because you're not feeling it as much. You are revolting and rebelling against God because God has asked us to have our bodies align our minds sober. So to have a sober mind before the Lord means you cannot have drugs. But you can go and ask God to forgive you of that rebellion, of that revolt. He can forgive that. not only forgive them, but reestablish you. You don't even have to have any withdrawal effects because God will uphold your spirit and he will restore the joy and the the gladness back in your heart and soul in your spirit because you will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God is forgiving your iniquity and the devil can't do anything about it. And you get to share your testimony. Amen. Let's pray a prayer together here. I didn't put one up on the screen, but we're going to do it like this and and do it for ourselves. Let's start just with ourselves. I just taught prayer on this, so I just want to I'll say it slow. You can say it with me. Oh, dear heavenly father, I ask you to forgive me of my sins. I ask you to forgive the sins of the land I walk on. I ask you to forgive the curses against me and I ask you to forgive the curses I've spoken and I ask you to forgive the iniquity found within me in the name of Jesus the son of God. Father God, I'm sorry. I repent of it and I forgive myself as well. Thank you Jesus for healing me and restoring me. The devil can no longer accuse me here. He is gone. Father God, I ask that the mourning and the sorrow and the grief that I suffer with, the bondage and the calamities that I suffer with because of my iniquity that I have that you've forgiven me. I ask that you change it into joy, that you change it into liberty, that you change it into freedom, that you change it into gladness, that you change it into your presence and holiness, so that I can rejoice in the praise before you because you are my deliverer. You are my healer. You are my rock. You are my salvation. You are my safety. You are my foundation. In the name of Jesus, the son of God. Thank you. Amen. God bless you. I hope you are changed by this message. Share it with others and I will see you in the next message. Byebye. Previous Next

< Back PERSEVERANCE Minister Lisa Kane July 10, 2022 Objective: The objective of this message is to encourage believers to remain steadfast in their faith during trials and tribulations by holding onto the hope, peace, and confidence found in Christ. It seeks to show that perseverance produces character, character strengthens hope, and hope anchors us in God’s eternal promises. Synopsis: In this message, Lisa Kane opens with Romans 5:1–5, highlighting how justification by faith brings peace with God through Christ. She explains that while life is full of trials, tribulation produces perseverance, perseverance builds character, and character fosters hope that does not disappoint because it is rooted in God’s love poured out by the Holy Spirit. Lisa emphasizes the sacrificial love of Christ demonstrated in Romans 5:8, reminding listeners that Jesus died for all humanity while they were still sinners. This truth is framed as the ultimate example of real love, contrasted with the world’s distorted definitions. God’s plan from the beginning—foretold in Daniel and fulfilled in Christ—shows His intent to end sin and bring everlasting righteousness. The message then turns to Psalm 27, where David’s confidence in the Lord through trials serves as a model for modern believers. Lisa applies this scripture to contemporary struggles, including cultural ideologies and societal pressures, stressing that Christians must stand firm on God’s Word, knowing that they will one day give an account before Him. Perseverance, she teaches, is not only about enduring hardship but about keeping the eternal perspective of standing before God. This perspective equips believers to resist fear, find strength in the Holy Spirit, and experience the joy and peace of knowing their eternal destiny. Lisa reassures those facing despair—even suicidal thoughts—that hope in Christ offers deliverance, strength, and a transformed character on the other side of trials. The sermon concludes with a call to remain faithful, patient, and courageous, clinging to the vision of eternity with Christ. Believers are urged to live with the assurance that one day they will hear the words, “Well done, good and faithful servant,” and to let this confidence fuel their perseverance through every tribulation. Inspired Teaching: Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kane and I'm recording this on Sunday, July 10th, 2022. This message is called Perseverance. Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we lift up this message and we bless it in the name of Jesus and we thank you for your blessing on it. Let our spirits be nourished and fed and let our minds grab hold of the hope that we have in you. knowing where we're going to stand with you in the end. Thank you, Father God. In the glorious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. Oh, it's going to be one of those messages. By the way, just so you know, I do have the air conditioner running and the fans running, so you're going to hear that hum in the background. I humbly apologize, but it is 95 degrees outside, and so I'm trying to keep it cool inside. We are in the middle of summer here, July 10th, 2022. All right. So, let's go to our opening scripture here. We're going to be looking at Romans chapter five. We're going to start here with verses 1-5. Uh, therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Now, let's keep in mind, how are we justified by faith? The moment you ask Jesus into your heart to be your Lord and Savior because you can't see him, that is an act of faith. And notice when you do that, look at this. You have a peace with God through Jesus because you're asking Jesus to forgive you of your sins. So you have this peace. It is incredible because we do have tribulation. So I want you to see this that this is yours that you have this in spite of all that's going on. I'm going to show you the hope and the confidence that you have that's going to get you through all of this. Amen. So perseverance. Here we go. Uh verse two. through whom we also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. So we can rejoice in this. So when all hell's breaking loose, guess what? You can say, "I don't care. I know where I'm going to be with my God in heaven." Amen. Oh, let's look at how we know. Let's look verse three. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations. This is what I'm talking about. Paul says it so perfectly here. We glory in tribulations knowing that tribulation produces perseverance and perseverance character and character hope. Now hope does not disappoint because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. Oh hallelujah. So in spite of all the tribulations and the sufferings that we deal with, we get to see a visual of where we're going to be and have a hope. And remember what hope is. Hope is something we cannot see, but we can know. It's called faith. You're having this little bit of faith here that's going to get you through these things. So in spite of all the tribulations that we deal with, we get to see this hope and know where we are with Christ. Now, how does this work? Because that's going to be important here. How does that work? Well, let's continue with Romans 5 and look at verse 8. But God demonstrates his own love toward us. And now, while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Oh. Oh. Okay. Hold on. hold everything. So if you're lying, you're cheating, you're committing adultery, you committed murder, hey, you're living in homosexuality sin or you're trying it out, it's sin. Sin is sin. Okay? You are living in sin. Now whether you have asked Jesus to believe uh to come into your heart and you believe in him or not uh whatever you've done Jesus performed the most important act of love. Remember love is love. Well, how do you demonstrate love? Look at this. It he demonstrates his own love toward us and that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. If you read the previous scriptures between the first set and this one that I read, you will find and this is a true statement. Will you die for someone that you love? For that matter, will I die for someone that I love? You know, you have to wonder if you ever face that kind of situation what you would do. Some people have the gumption and will do it. But there are others that won't. And it doesn't matter how much of you're a believer or a sinner. If you're not going to die for someone, you're not demonstrating love. Simple as that. So, love isn't love as the world would like us to believe. Love is dying for someone. And Christ died for all of us. And you know what? We were still sinners when he died for us. Oh, you you got to capture this. Think of this. Think of this. Imagine when the flood came out thousands of years ago and God was facing a situation. Now I I'm I'm looking at it from a human perspective, but I this is something to grasp on to because this is so mindblowing. Imagine him facing ending the the world at that point with the flood and starting over because he looked at mankind and saw the sin was continuously in their hearts. But you know what he was thinking? He was thinking, "Lisa in 2022 on July 10th is going to be talking about this very moment and she's going to believe in me. I got to save this world." That is how God thought this through. And in whether he was at the point of the flood or this was in his planning phase when he saw the whole thing and knew the outcome, whenever it was, he saw Lisa. He saw you. He saw what we will be like. And he knew some would believe and some wouldn't believe. But he couldn't abandon the ones that chose to believe. So he demonstrated the greatest act of love by sending his only begotten son that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Now, you got to understand that God has a plan here. This perfect plan, the one that he started in the beginning. And he knew. He knew that Lisa would believe. He knew that you would believe. He knew that us believers would be here. And in knowing that, he decided, "Okay, I got I'm going to put a plan. I'm going to put an end to sin." Now, take a look. Because see, we live in sin and we only know sin because that's what we're born into. We do not understand a world without sin. In fact, it's very difficult to comprehend who Jesus is. It really is confounding to say the least. You know, when you think of him as a god and then you think of him as a man and you think, "But I've sinned. Shouldn't you have?" But he didn't. And he went to the cross, but he took on all that sin and he started the act of putting it to an end. Look what Daniel says about uh this to the Israelites and talking to them. But this is the overall plan he's talking about. Daniel 9:24. 70 weeks were determined for your people and for your holy city to finish the transgression to make an end of sins to make reconciliation for iniquity to bring in everlasting righteousness to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy. So he has a plan. And that plan is moving forward. So when you believe and you do have this peace and a hope that you can stand and we're going to look at that in just a moment. You can know that his plan is going forward and which means we're going to see tribulations. We're going to see hell on earth. And in reality, you know what? I've seen some news stories and I've seen some of the stuff that these people do. They get what they deserve. Okay, just saying the reality of the situation is they get what they deserve. And I hope though that they would repent and turn and try to make a better life for themselves. So even though you're a believer and remember as I taught uh actually over it's like a couple years now maybe uh I taught on being a soldier in God's army because as a believer in Christ you're going to have to deal with things and as you deal with things you've got to know the authority that you have and you got to know the tools that you have and how to use those tools. You can go check it out on our website. It is there. All that teaching is there and it's all in video. So you can go watch each step of being a soldier in God's army. It's based on Ephesians chapter 6. So now we know that God has a plan. We know that we're going to face tribulation. So but he said we had a hope and we have a comfort and a peace. He left us the comforter, the Holy Spirit. So what is how do we grab that? How do we have that sustained in our mind? Because sometimes it's very difficult. You're in the situation and all you're thinking of is, "Whoa, there's that mountain, right? You're just being attacked, attacked, attacked." You know, this week wasn't one of my best weeks. But that's okay. I just trust in the Lord that I know where I'm going to stand. So, let's look at what Psalm 27 has to say. We're going to go through that entire chapter because it is so powerful. It is the and and David wrote this psalm the and it it helped him sustain and he went through some serious trials and tribulations. This is your rock, your comfort. You got to remember this chapter. You got to hold on to it because as you get the vision of where you're going to be in the end, you're going to be looking at the straw going, nobody's going to care in 100,000 years. And here's the best part. It builds your character. It helps you persevere. It you just keep on going. For those of you who are dealing with uh suicidal thoughts, listen, there is a life right on the other side of getting through this trial and tribulation. And I want you to capture that. You need to repent. You need to ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins. And I promise you, I promise you, and Jesus, I'm on his side. This is a promise from him that you will be saved and that you will get to the other side and a much stronger individual. Amen. So, let's go look at Psalm 27 and start there. I I you guys, this is going to blow your way. Psalm 20. We're going to start here with verses 1 and two. The Lord is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid? We're gonna stop there. There's other scripture. And again, I don't want to give you all the scripture. I want you to go look these up yourself. Oh, death. Oh, death. Where is your sting? Think of it this way. There is life, there is death, and there's eternity. Eternity is where you're going to spend after death. Now death could come in the form of anything. Cancer, car accident, swimming accident, you name it. COVID, you name it. Death happens. The rapture will take you out of this body in essence as a form of death. But here's the best part. When you stand to face God at your judgment, who is the greater to fear the tribulation you're dealing with now, which is minuscule and nothing according to God or God. So when you put your mind right with God and you are looking at God and you're looking at that moment where you're standing in front of him and that moment should drive your entire life. So when you're faced with the current woke society because we're at war. We have ideology wars on us. They have the genderless war taking place currently in the news the other day. Uh, they don't want to call him mother or mother. They want to call her the birthing parent. Listen, you want to call her a birthing parent? Sure, it makes sense. Put it in a book, whatever. But don't eliminate the word mother. You see what they're doing here? They're trying to indoctrinate us into their ideology that all men and women are the same. And in all reality, we're not. In fact, there are no two people alike in the world. Even twins are not alike. You might see the similarities of people across the world, but we're all different. We're all different. And you know, that's we got to grasp onto the uniqueness that we're all different. And here's the best part of it though. In that uniqueness, you get to stand in the presence of God of who you are. You, me, Lisa, the uniqueness of Lisa is going to stand before God. So when you the uniqueness of you stands before God, how are you going to face him? Trying to be like the world or trying to be like yourself. So you have to overcome the ideologies. Even what I was saying earlier in homosexuality, love is love. You see, when you're attacked with this, you have to think of what is more important in the long term of things. you standing before God and facing him or and acce or accepting what the world is trying to force on you to accept their ideology to bless it. In essence, that's what the movement of the LGBTQ whatever it is that is moving forward today. That ideology is saying you have to accept me for who I am. Whatever God accepts you for who you are, by the way, so there's nothing wrong with that. Uh but they also want you not only to accept you but to accept their sin and bless it and and in in essence giving them a word that says when they face God, hey look God, I had the whole world behind me, I got their blessings, which means we're right, you're wrong. You know what? God is patient though and God is trying to get your attention and he's saying, "Listen, yes, you're going to face me, but I'm going to assure you, you're not going to be feeling that way at that moment. You are not. It's going to be you and him and the books." So, you have to look at that moment and realize, okay, so then if they're forcing this ideology on me and you say, "No, I'm not going to approve or bless your sin. You want to be a sinner, that's between you and God, go sin. Sin is fun for a season. It feels good for a season, but it backbites you. It comes after you later, and it will haunt you on the day that you're in the presence of the Lord. So, you have to realize that there's got to be a moment where you need to repent and turn from that and say, "Okay, Lord, what am I going to do here?" and and say, "I I'm sorry, and I need to call on you and I need you to be my Lord and Savior." And as that believer, when you're faced with these ideologies, remember where you're going to be standing on judgment day. And the answer is simple. I don't accept your ideology. I got to face God in the future. And when I do, I'm going to do it on his terms in the word of God, not your terms. That, my friend, is the secret to persevering because you have that hope because you know it's going to happen. For all of you who are telling you there is no life after death, they're lying to you. Yes, I get it. I have no proof. But I promise you that the moment you repent, you will have your proof because you will know it. You will feel it. It will be a part of you and it is very comforting. So then whom shall you fear? I would go with God and not the world. The world can do nothing. I just taught on Nehemiah and I taught about discernment there. But I also taught that he had the authority of God. He had the authority of the king to do what he was doing. And even though the whole wicked world around him was trying to stop him, he kept persevering and he did it. and he got to the other side because of his authority. So you can get to the other side and you will have a better character. You will be full of hope and comfort because I promise you as you go through every tribulation and some are small, some are bigger, you do come out with a better character. Amen. Whom shall you fear? So remember you have the authority of God. Stand on God's word. Verse two, when the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell. Look at Nehemiah. The enemies fell. They couldn't do anything. And for all of you who have testimonies, you already know this. I have testimonies. It is absolutely amazing. When you get to the other side, you go, "Wow, I stressed over that and it was nothing." It's amazing. We're just we're in the flesh and that is very hard. But if you keep your mind on where you're going to be standing in the presence of God, decision-m should become much, much easier. Let's go to verse three now. Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war may rise against me, in this I will be confident. And I just talked about wars, the war of ideology, I can be confident in knowing because see, you make the decision because you're standing in the presence of God. And so you make the decision based on his word. You stand for his word because the word is Jesus. I know it's all beaten up. I I use my word. I get in here. Get into your word. This is Jesus. This is how you're going to get to know who Jesus and God is. Don't listen to the world tell you who Jesus is. You need to get into the word of God and find out who he is. And then you can stand in confidence when you're in this war. And we are in war. We're being attacked with all of these ideologies. And we need to stand strong. And I'm telling you too, there's a physical war coming because whenever you have a spiritual war like this, it's in the heavens. Whatever happens in the heavens happens on the earth. Whatever happens on the earth happens in the heavens. Look at what uh Jesus said when he gave the key keys to the kingdom of heaven. He said, "Whatever you bind on heaven is bound in heaven. Whatever you loose on earth is loosened in earth." So or loosed in heaven. So get into those scriptures, study them, learn them, and have the confidence. Remember where you're going to be standing. You're going to be standing in front of God. And so you say, "You know what, Lord? Your word said this. I'm going to stand on your word and I'm going to be confident in knowing that I'm going to be better than what this war is after me." And yeah, there were consequences. They're going to try to hurt you. But in Nehemiah, they couldn't do nothing. They had no authority. And until God is ready to remove you, they can't do nothing. Oh, death. Oh, death, where is your staying? Oh, this is awesome. You should have the confident and the hope now. And watch how this works out. This is so amazing. Verse four. One thing I have desired of the Lord that I that will I seek. That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life to behold the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple. If you are still thinking or have thought that you're going to be like some angel with wings and a harp and sitting on a cloud, come again. Because I'm going to tell you right now, that is not what heaven is like. And you are going to be blessed. And and if you just think about being in the presence of the Lord, the the healing, the feeling of being healed, the feeling of being delivered and no more sin, no more darkness, no more pain, no more. That alone should be a a mind opener, a an eyeopener as to what heaven will be like. Okay? You don't want to go to hell. Hell is for the devil. and and the Lord will put you there because if you choose him over he God then that's you know you you made your decision but I'm asking you to think about this think it logically through and say you know what I think I'd rather be in the presence of God listen you're made in his image so you have these self- thoughts and idea ideologies that you're kind of up here and that well I could be better or like you you stand on hey I know what's right God not you oh and And we do have that kind of characteristic traits that come out of us. Well, this is the time to say, "No, you know what? I'm going to humble myself before the Lord and I'm going ask the Lord why." And then when you go and find out because he will give you the answer. I promise you that. I've asked why many times, many times. And I got my answers. I promise you, you will get your answers. So, think of what heaven will be like. Think of when you're in that moment of judgment. That's more important than whatever trials and tribulations you're facing. And that should give you hope and confidence and should make your decision- making way easier on what to stand. So, if you have trouble believing, let's say, in evolution or creation, again, think on what heaven's going to be like and understand that if man hadn't fall, you wouldn't have to believe. But because he did fall, you have to believe, which means evolution is debunked. It couldn't happen. That's because you're keeping your eyes on the prize of where you're going to be for eternity. It helps. I'm promising you that. Builds your confidence, builds your character, and helps you persevere through the trials and the tribulations. Amen. Let's continue on Psalm 27. We're in verse 5. For in the time of trouble, he shall hide me in his pavilion, in the secret place of his tabernacle. He shall hide me. He shall set me high upon a rock. Rock. The rock. Jesus is our rock. The righteous shall run into it. The strong tower a righteous shall run into. I taught on Jesus being our ark, our salvation when the end comes. Now remember Noah for the flood. Remember God was thinking Lisa at that time. He decided to save mankind and he saved eight people. And if you go and look at uh the ark encounter and you look at creation museum and you look at their studies that they did on DNA, you will find that our DNA goes back to eight lines. Eight people survived the flood. So there is scientific proof, one that the flood took place. They already know that. They're just trying to decide how big it was. And two, that our DNA does go to eight people, eight lines. So there is scientific proof. So if you are struggling in believing the Old Testament or believing Genesis, I promise you it is truth and the science is coming out. The world don't want it to. Again, here's another war that you're going through. The world don't want you to go through that or know that because if you didn't think that man fell, they can keep you in sin. You see how the devil works? But if you're a believer in Christ and you know what's coming, God has already prophesied about the tribulation in Revelation. Ezekiel has already prophesied there's going to be a great earthquake earthquake where all the walls fall. And that is before the Israelites are are covered or uh marked in the book of Revelation. So that's before the rapture because the the the Christians have to be removed in order for the uh 144,000 to be sealed. So on the day of the Lord, this earthquake happens. The sun turns dark, the moon turns red. There's there's a series of events. It's a day, a day you will never forget. I promise you, you want to be in that rapture. You do not want to be here for the tribulation. That is going to be hell on earth, literally. Uh and in in fact, the first five months, you're not going to be able to die. I just know that. Okay? go into the scriptures and look at it. But look, he says you will be hidden. Look at that. He shall hide me in his pavilion in the secret. There is a secret place. Now here we create our secret place when we spend time with the Lord. But God has a secret place for us. Don't know what it is yet. Secret, but I promise you it's there. And we are going to be comforted and held and protected in spite of all of that going on. Because you know what? One, it doesn't matter per se because when I stand before God, he's going to tell me some good words. I'm going to share those words with you. And I'm hoping he shares those words with you, too. You're going to be standing in his presence. And you're going to be in his eternity. And you're going to not be in hell. And you're going to be not hurting. You're going to be free. You're gonna be loved and at peace. That, my friend, is absolutely so important. So now you can look at that and let it be your confidence. Let it be your hope. Let it get you through the p the tribulations so you can persevere and be strong and have a better character when the next trial and tribulation comes through that you have to persevere through. Verse six. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me. Therefore, I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tabernacle. I will sing. Yes, I will sing praises to the Lord. You know what? When you grab hold of this, you should be singing and you should be jumping up and down for joy, you should be like, "Yes, I I'm telling you, it is a a great mental picture to have because as you stand up strong, your head is above the shoulders. you are above your enemies. They look at you and in fact people of the world. They're considered your enemy right now until they become a believer. But they will be looking at you like what happened to you? Are you in la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la land? Good. You ought to be you ought to be in in the mindset of thinking of where heaven is and what heaven will be like because that is your comfort. That is your strength. And when they ask you because they will ask you and this is your testimony. You can say, "I know where I'm going to be with God when all is done." And you're going to say, "I'm going to be saved." And you can ask them, "Do you want to be saved, too?" And you know, when they see your confidence, your strength, and they see you expressing yourself, and they see the peace and the joy that you have and you singing the praises that you have, they will repent because it is a a catching it catches you. You know, Nehemiah, when I taught on that, the neighbors caught on like, "Okay, he he's going to fix this part of the fence. Well, I'm going to do my part." And then and it got it just kept catching on. It's like a fire that catches on. Amen. Amen. This is awesome. God is so good. Verse seven, here. Oh Lord, when I cry with my voice, have mercy also upon me and answer me. When you said, "Seek my face." My heart said to you, "Your face, Lord, I will seek." Do not hide your face from me. Do not turn your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Do not leave me nor forsake me, oh God of my salvation. And when you finally grab hold of God and you ask, you repent and you get, you grab hold and you hold on tight. Put his face right in front of you. Put it right there. Don't let go. You say, "Lord, do not leave me. Do not forsake it." and he won't. And that's what he gives you, that comfort, that hope that you can know that you are in his presence. Hallelujah. Because you're seeking his face. You're seeking him. Find out who he is. You're going to be shocked. The world's angry at nothing. But God is all knowing. He has the answers. He's righteous. He is just. But he loves you so much. He sent his only begotten son even as you are a sinner. Verse 10. When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take care of me. I want you to understand something. as you age and sometimes when you're young, you you have to face this. Um our parents die, you know, people die and whether it's a parent or uh a loved one, someone who's cared for you and taken care of you and they're removed. They're they're no longer a caretaker. They're no longer available to take care of you, whether they're living in an Alzheimer's home or they've gone on to be with the Lord. They forsake you. But I'm going to tell you right now, Jesus doesn't forsake you. He's the rock that you can rely on. And you know what? And you know, he will take care of your parents and your loved ones. You can have the confidence to know he's got life and death in it. He made it. He understands it. And he understands that you are afraid. You know how many times he said, "Do not be afraid." I forget how many times it is written in the Bible, but it is written so many times to not be afraid. And it is hard, especially when you're in the middle of that trial or tribulation, grieving for a lost one. You're sitting there and you're just like, "Wow, Lord, how am I going to get through this?" But you go to him, you seek his face, you hold on, you don't let go, and you know that he is your strength. and remember where you're going to be standing in his presence in the future. Verse 11, teach me your way, O Lord. And think about that. Teach me your way, oh Lord. His way. He knows about death. He knows what the spiritual realm is all about. He will teach it to you. But you have to get into his presence to find out. It is all in here. But as long as you let the world get in your way first, you will never get your answers. And then you wonder why you have such a hard time with the trials and the tribulations even as a believer. Because it is hard. It's hard to have faith. But if you're seeking him, you can have that confidence knowing where you're going to be in in the future because you're going to be there. You will be there. You will be there. So grab on and say, "Okay, I'm going to hope and know I'm going to be there." And that should give you the confidence of how to live your life. Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me in a smooth path because of my enemies. Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries. For false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out violence. Again, the enemy is going to do everything they can to get to you. Even lie. Look at what Trump's going through. And there's so many lies about him, but he stands for God. And he'll say, he comes out and says, "This is not truthful." And you know what? I'm gonna promise you this. He'd be in jail or even dead by now if they had found anything evil on him. They didn't. They wanted it so bad and they can't. So, they're trying to figure out what's the best way, best lie we can make up. So what do you do? You seek his word and you remember where you're going to be when it's your time to face the Lord. I'm going tell you right now, it it it it makes the tribulation not so important anymore. Amen. Amen. The last two verses, verses 13 and 14. I would have lost heart unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Oh, it is so easy in the middle of that trial and tribulation. Look at people who have committed suicide. It is easy to lose hope and to lose sight of where you're going to be because the enemy wants you to think that way. He He's trying to confuse you and keep you pushed down. Stand with confidence and remember where you're going to be. Look at that moment. You're in the presence of the Lord. You have to make an accounting for yourself. So, what's it going to be like? You going to live by the rules of the world? Are you going to live by the rules of God? And look what else he says here in verse 14. Wait on the Lord. Be of good courage and he shall strengthen your heart. Wait, I say on the Lord. you know, as you are patient because, you know, we know we're in the trials and tribulations we're facing right now. And this is just the beginning of birth pains as Matthew, Mark, uh, as Jesus says in Matthew and Mark and Luke, this is just the beginning. So, there's going to be it's going to get real bad and it's coming. So, as we sit here, this is the time to reinforce our mind on that visual. Picture yourself in front of his presence. Picture yourself knowing what he's going to say. Picture yourself seeking the word. Picture yourself standing up going, "These trials and tribulations are nothing because I've got a better place to be." Picture yourself making the decisions of the word of God and not of the world. Picture yourself in the knowledge that you have hope, faith in Christ, and keep that in mind and wait for it. So as you wait for it, as you get to you're visualizing it, you see it coming and it's coming. Every day that every day passes, it gets closer and closer. Amen. name. Remember, these are the words that you should be hoping to hear. Look at these words. This is when you stand in the moment of God. Matthew 25:23, his Lord said to him, "Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your Lord." I use that scripture because these are this is about um the talents that we're given. You're given a testimony. Share your testimony. Let your talent be rewarded. Stand strong. Well done, good and faithful servant. Remember that moment. Hasn't happened yet, but remember it by seeing it. Hold on to it. Let it be your comfort. Let it be your confidence. Let it be your hope. And when you come out of the trial and the tribulation, your character goes up and you can say with confidence, I persevered and I made it. Hallelujah. Thank you, Lord. Thank you. Thank you. Let's close in a word of prayer. Father God, we bless this word and we thank you for your blessing on it. Oh, let us have our strength and our courage and our confidence and our hope in you. And let us hold on to that visual that we have for you and with you in that moment. We're going to be with you. Thank you, Father God, in the glorious name of Jesus. Amen. Well, amen. God bless you guys. I will see you in the next video. Bye-bye. Previous Next

< Back WHICH SIDE OF BELIEF ARE YOU ON Minister Lisa Kane September 9, 2023 Objective: The purpose of this message is to challenge listeners to examine where their faith truly stands—whether rooted in the physical and limited by doubt, or anchored in the spiritual with trust in God’s power. The teaching aims to strengthen believers’ understanding of how unbelief hinders God’s miracles, while faith opens the door to His supernatural works. It encourages self-reflection, prayer, and reliance on the Word of God to grow from doubt into strong, active belief. Synopsis: Lisa Kane begins the message in Mark 5, where Jesus raises Jairus’ daughter from the dead despite ridicule and unbelief from the surrounding crowd. She contrasts those who mocked Jesus with those who trusted Him, showing how belief determines outcomes. Drawing parallels to Israel’s unbelief in the wilderness (Psalm 106), she illustrates how misplaced desire and complaining led to forfeited blessings and lost opportunities. The teaching emphasizes that unbelief has consequences, while faith allows access to God’s promises. Lisa explains how Jesus intentionally surrounded Himself with disciples who believed when performing miracles, highlighting that our level of faith affects the breakthroughs we experience. The message also explores Mark 9, where a desperate father admits both belief and unbelief, showing that honest dependence on Jesus can invite His help to strengthen our faith. Throughout, Lisa reminds believers that miracles are not only biblical history but present realities, urging them to build faith through Scripture, prayer in the Holy Spirit, and testimonies of God’s works. She stresses that confession of Jesus’ Lordship brings salvation, deliverance, healing, and victory over sickness and bondage. The message concludes with a call to unlearn worldly limitations, embrace trust in Christ, and boldly step into the authority God has given His children—choosing the side of active belief rather than unbelief. Inspired Teaching: Hello and welcome to the House of Faith Ministries. I'm Lisa Kane. I'm recording this on Saturday, September 9th, 2023. Welcome. This message is called Which Side of Belief Are You On? Let's open up in a word of prayer. Father God, we thank you for your word. Lord, let your word not return void, but let it bring in the harvest. Let people hear and see, receive and believe and live your word in the glorious, absolutely wonderful name of Jesus. Amen. Amen. Amen. Let's go to our opening scripture here. We're going to start off in Mark 5:40. And they ridiculed him. But when he had put them all outside, he took the father and the mother of the child and those who were with him and entered where the child was lying. Okay. So what I want to do is I want to show you a point of view of do you see things with your eyes in the physical? Do you see things with your eyes in the spiritual? And as you can see here, this group of people, we're going to be delving into this event that happened where Jesus raises this little girl from the dead. Uh they ridiculed him. They didn't believe him. But you got to ask yourself why. You know, you know, they should have believed too because if you go back, I mean, even at their time when Elisha was buried and they another man had died and they put his bones on top of Elisha's bones, that man came alive. And the only reason I I laugh is because there's a story and I'm going to digress and share this little quick story with you and then we'll delve right into the scripture here. But a man and his wife and his mother-in-law went to Israel for a holiday. And uh the mother-in-law passes away while in Israel. And uh the coroner says, "Well, we can ship her back to the States for $5,000 or we can bury her here for $200." And he says, "Okay, we'll ship her back." And he's like, "Well, wait a minute. You're in the Holy Land. This is the Holy Land, you know." And he's like, "Yeah, yeah, I know." He says, "We'll ship her back." And he's like, "Mask? Why?" He says, "Oh, man. You bury her here, she might come back from the dead like Jesus and the bones of Elisha or the the person that was put on the bones of Elisha. Anyways, he didn't want to risk it. I just thought that was funny because it's just so applicable to what we were talking about today. So, he believed obviously and and you know there you know it's a matter of what you believe in and where your eyes are, you know. So, what I'm going to do with this teaching is try to get you to look beyond the physical and see what Jesus can do before you decide to ridicule him like this group of people, you know. And and another thing I really want you to see here is I want you to understand what the consequences of the lack of your belief is. Look at here. The Israelites in Psalm 106:24-25. Then they despised the pleasant land. They did not believe his word, but complained in their tents and did not heed the voice of the Lord. If you go look at the Israelites testimony, they were in the wilderness for 40 years. Everyone 21 years or 18 years, I think it's 21 years and younger enter the promised land. Anyone older did not. And it was because of this. They had mana, food, angel food from heaven given to them. And they were wanting their onions back from the Egyptians when they were in bondage. And because their want and their desire was on the past and they were looking back at their bondage but only seeing what they thought was good. They weren't looking at the good in the moment. Look at the consequence. They despised. Did you see this? They despised the pleasant land that they were going to be going. So they never did get to it. They never entered it. Why give it to them if you're going to complain about it? So they got their wish. So here again, I'm trying to show you where your eyes are so we can get the heart right with God. Amen. So let's go look at Mark 5. Let's look at the whole thing in context. And you know, let me do a refreshing reminder here before we delve even deeper into this. Judge my teaching. Yes, you heard me correctly. Let me repeat that. judge my teaching. You have a responsibility to test what you hear as a believer in Christ or even as an unbeliever. You have to sit there and know what you're hearing. Does it sound right? Is it within context? Is there truth to it? Does it make you feel something on the inside? And if you're struggling with any of that or or this just does not appeal to you, whatever, you need to take it to God. You need to say there's something wrong with her teaching or you need to say what's wrong with me, Lord, and I can't understand her. Maybe you should do both. And then the third is uh you know what, sometimes the teaching is really good, Lord. Hey, that was a great teaching. And then pray for the ministers. You need to be praying for us. all of us ministers, teachers, leaders that that uh share the word of God. You need to be sharing. You need to be praying for each and every one of us. So, get in there and pray. Seriously, get in there and pray. That doesn't mean you come and harass me after you've determined I made a mistake. No, what you do is you go to God. I promise you, he will show me. And if you take a look at all of my past uh teachings and and I've misqued Joel 2:32. I was quoting it as Joel 21:13 I think for a long time there or at least a few messages and the Lord showed me and I got it corrected but I'm not going to go back and correct a past teaching the context is still really good I'm not or the content is still really good so please understand teachers ministers leaders we grow and as we grow we learn more from the word of God so pray for us I haven't done one of those reminders in quite a while okay let's go look at this Jesus raises this little girl from the dead. Okay, so Mark 5:36, as soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, okay, so pause here for a minute. Give you a little background. The ruler of the synagogue knew his daughter was sick. So he goes running to Jesus. He heard about Jesus. He heard he was healing the sick. He decides to run after him, try to get his attention. He He's Jesus is surrounded by a huge crowd. I mean, they're thronging him big time and he's trying to get through. In the meanwhile, people from his household came and said, "Hey, don't bother the master. Don't even talk to him anymore. Your daughter is dead." Jesus heard that, and this is where he is. As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not be afraid. Only believe." Pause. Only believe. So, how do you believe in something? Now here this ruler of the synagogue had heard about Jesus and knew something was up. Now uh just to kind of give you a quick view of what she is uh raised from the dead. So obviously he believed Jesus can't perform miracles when the lack of belief is there. You can go look that up in all the gospels in his hometown. Uh even in this place where he is right now in this whole Mark chapter five area. He is he he cast out that demon, the legions and he um the people got so scared when he went across to the other side and when he got over there they heard about what happened here and they told him you need to leave. So they got scared and their lack of um their lack of belief their unbelief is what prevented them from having miracles. But as soon as he got back to the other side, here he is now raising this little girl from the dead. He's going to heal the woman with the issue of blood uh that she had for 12 years. This girl that he raises from the dead is 12 years old. The the significant of the number 12 plays a huge role in here. I'm not delving into the teaching of the numbers here. My dad has taught on that and there's teachings uh in House of Faith Ministries or you can find it from other uh ministers out there. But here he's telling this ruler of the synagogue, don't be afraid, only believe. So here, this ruler of the synagogue hears him and sum things up. So let's continue on with this event. And he prevented no one to follow him except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James. Now, why would he only take so many of his disciples? Every person has a level of belief. You know, if you go look at uh Thomas after Jesus was raised from the dead, he didn't want to believe till he could put his fingers into the holes and the side of Jesus. He doubted. So notice, you know, you don't see Jesus grabbing him. He's getting the ones he knows believes. So now he's gathering a group of people who are believers in raising someone from the dead because he needs that to raise this. By the way, Jesus can raise anyone from the dead any which way. But he's trying to teach his disciples and any minister of the word of God where we could perform these miracles and get them up from the grave. He's trying to show us how to do it because we're not God. We're not Jesus. We don't say let there be light and there's light. We can't do that. We have limitations. Jesus doesn't. But he's showing us in the limitations how to get beyond the limitations. And here you can clearly see he's bringing believers around. In verse 38, then he came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue who and saw a tumult and those who wept and wailed loudly. Now, this still goes on today, but in the Middle East, when someone passes away, it becomes a huge to-do. In fact, they have professional whalers. You can hire someone to come in and whail at your house when you pass away. This is something that they do out there. Well, Jesus walks into this with his group of people that he brought with him. And when he came in, he said to them, "Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping." And look at this. and they ridiculed him. They didn't believe. So now Jesus is coming into this state of unbelief. How many ministers are you're teaching the word of God and you've you're trying to teach something spiritual that you your level of belief is way up here but the person listening their level of belief is way down here. It becomes challenging. But look what Jesus did. He said, "But when he had put them all outside, so he took all those unbelievers, sent them outside, says, "You go out here, you know, and he he's taking control of the situation." So he's grabbed the father, the mother, the of the child and those who were with him, those are the disciples that he selected and entered where the child was lying. That was our opening scripture. Then he says he then he took the child by the hand and said to her to Lethkakumi which is translated little girl I say to you arise. Immediately the girl arose and walked for she was 12 years of age and they were overcome with great amazement. Now not everyone responds the same way and I really want to point this out here while we're here. So take a look at the Pharisees and the Sadducees and the Herodians. They saw the same miracles as these people did and they thought he was filled with a demon, a devil, be elabub. So, everybody has their own opinions and what have you. But where's your belief? Because now I'm going to ask you a very personal question. Do you believe that someone could be raised from the dead? You might be thinking, "Well, that might have been done in the past. It might have been done in the Bible, but they can't do it anymore today. I promise you, those miracles are still happening. You're just not hearing them. You're not seeing them. You're not looking in the right place. But I will tell you this, it starts with you trusting in God. It does start with trust. How do you get to this point where your level of belief can change? Because that's what you need to look at now. Are you are you going to continue to believe that no one could be raised from the dead? That's a very good question. You have to realize some point in your life, you heard these things. They have to be real. Somewhere along the road of life, you've got to realize this could happen in my lifetime. Maybe I could raise someone from the dead. You know, as a believer in Christ, when you start to walk with God, I mean, Peter walked on water with Jesus. I know I've tried walking on water. By the way, I failed every single time. But that doesn't mean my level of belief says I can't. I know someday maybe I can. Even uh Martha when he raised Lazarus from the dead. I know we'll all be together in our kingdom at the end here. And he's like, but you got to believe here and now. And you can see even I have my limitation. So how do we get our belief to go from here to here in the now? So let's continue on. Let's look at another event here. Mark 9 uh 21- 27. So we're further along in the book of Mark. So he asked his father, "How long has this been happening to him?" That's Jesus talking. The father brings a child over to him. And this child is convulsing. The body is thrown into fire. The body is thrown into water. They have to pull him out to save him. Otherwise, this demon that he's possessed with is going to try is trying to kill him. And it's a deaf and dumb mute type of demon. So Jesus is asking the father, "How long has this been happening?" And he said, "Well, from childhood and often he has thrown him both into the fire, into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us." Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." I'm gonna pause there before we finish the event of this um casting of this demon. All things are possible if you believe. If you believe you can fly, all things are possible. It's what Jesus said. Where's your belief? And I'm gonna tell you right now, all of us are hesitating because how far can I take that belief? Sure, I believe eternity. I'm saved. I'm a Christian. He's got me. He's getting me to heaven. But what can I believe in now today that wow will take us to whole new heights and levels. All things are possible to him who believes. Now let's look at what Jesus does here. Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, "Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief." Well, there's an oxymoron, right? You know, a contradictory statement. I believe and then help me with my unbelief. In other words, he's saying, "Listen, I went to you. I found you because I heard you're the one who can raise people from the dead. I heard you're the one who can cast out demons and you've been doing it all this time. So, I believe." But then he's also saying, "I haven't seen it personally and I really truly don't know, but I'm asking you to help me with my unbelief." Oh, so now you look at this belief and unbelief situation. This man literally identified himself in the very moment I'm talking about here. So your eyes on the heavenly things where you see spiritual things or are you like it looking in the physical? My car is broken down. It's going to take weeks. I have to get the money for it. I have to do this. But do you believe that it can be fixed now? Or do you believe it's not even broken? You know, when my family moved from um really southern part of uh California, the Wilmington area over there, and they moved to the uh Riverside area, the night of the day, the late afternoon is the last man leaving, my father. He shares his testimony. Car would not start and then he would get it to go. He'd be able to go um you know, a few hundred feet or so. it would break down. It was like something was just keeping him back from leaving. So he knew, he was praying. He kept turning it on, kept going, got onto the freeway. Once he passed the LA County line, car ran fine. There was nothing wrong with the car. Do you believe? Where's your belief? Where's your unbelief? For that matter, do you ask Jesus to help you with your unbelief? That's very important here. This man is saying, "Okay, I need you to fix my son. I am seeing my son go through this torment and I do not want him to go through that because he is my son. I want him saved. He We've had to take extreme measures to take care of him. But you're here because I heard. So, I'm believing and yet I'm asking you to help me with my unbelief." Where do you stand with Jesus? Do you talk to him? Because I'm going to tell you right now, you don't see him. You can't see him. But the moment you talk to him, you're talking in faith to a being that you don't even know for sure exists until you start talking. And then when you see him move in your life, you're like, man, he's real. And your level of belief goes up and up. So let's continue on. So when Jesus saw that the people came running together, so now he's got a huge crowd coming up here. He's, you know, going to cast out this demon. this crowd's coming. He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him, and enter him no more." Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead, so that many said, "He is dead." Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose. So the demon came out of him. The child is now clean. Now, I'm going to add an element here that I want you to see. So, with the girl that he rose from the dead, Elisha was rose, excuse me, Lazarus was rose from the dead. The bones that were laid on Elash, Elisha was rose from the dead. When Jesus came rose from the dead and the graves opened, according to Matthew, a lot of graves open, a lot of people came out of the dead. Every single one of these people had to die again because everybody's appointed to die at least once. Hebrews 9:27. So because everybody has to die again. We have to come to the realization of the power and the authority that Jesus has and others. I've seen others raise people from the dead. I've seen it on videos. I and I've heard very good testimony that I trust and believe. So it happens but then that person does eventually die. Friend of ours, she wrote, she got her husband, he had a heart attack, she grabbed and said, "No, you're not dying now." And he lived. He lived for several more years and then he passed on. So they do pass away again. So raising someone from the dead, I want you to have that concept to realize it's the here and the now. for you in your authority you have with God. And and I'm sure what this does to your belief level now, like, well, wait a second. Do I really want that power and authority? Well, think about it this way. We're told we can live a long old life as long as we put God first, do his commandments first, seek his presence. I've been teaching on this for many, many teachings. You can go check all that out. We're told we can have that. We can do that. So that means I've got to follow the commandments of the Lord. I can live a long life. David lived so to such an old age that he had to have they hired a a virgin girl to lay and warm him up at night and cover him with the blankets to keep him warm till he passed on in his old age. So he was blessed with old age. We're we can be blessed with old age. So yes, we can will eventually die. But if someone dies prematurely, yes, we should bring them back from the dead because they were promised to live a long life. You see, now your level of belief should be going up because this is your power and authority as a believer in Christ that you can do this, which means infirmities. You can cast them out. You can get rid of sickness. You don't have to be sick. And I'm trying to teach this freedom in being a believer in Christ. Why? because that's the promises that we have. Go back to what Jesus said. Look it. Jesus said to him in verse 23, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." So you can be not sick, you don't have to ache, you don't have to take pills. Your level of belief has to come from here to here. Which means you have to unlearn some things. We were grow raised and grown in a community where you get sick, you call the doctor, you go visit the doctor, he gives you a pill and you feel better. Takes care of the symptoms. It doesn't take care of the root cause. Sometimes these symptoms continue to repeat and you have to repeat taking pills. Hence the pharmacy industry and its multibillion dollar industry. It's because that's what we were taught as kids. We have to unlearn that and realize Jesus is our healer. Where's your level of belief? See, the devil's done a great job to bring your level of belief down. He's done a great job in the Western Hemisphere to keep you from realizing that we can cast out demons, that we can uh raise people from the dead. He's done all that and he's done an excellent job. Continue here. Look at Jude in verses 20- 21. But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. How do you keep your level of belief up? Right here, building yourselves up on your most holy faith. You have to keep talking to Jesus. That's your faith. Jesus, where are you? He's right here. And he keeps telling me, my Bible's over there. I was going to grab it. He keeps talking to me through the Bible and I keep reading it because I want to hear more about him. I want my level of belief, my level of faith to go up. So, I keep building it up every single day. Look at this. Praying in the Holy Spirit. I, you know, when you get baptized, you're filled with the Holy Spirit. That's when the Holy Spirit fills you up when you get water baptized. And that's when you can go into ministry. So you've got to keep the Holy Spirit in you talking. You just keep talking with God. Speak in tongues. The the word of God is complete and tells you everything. And you need to keep coming back to it to continue to build yourself up so that your faith goes up so that when you see them pushing a new drug, you don't fall for the hype of it all. You because you would already be healed. you'd be in the presence of God going, "Man, you know, I'm not sick. I have been." And you know what? I'm going to tell you this much. If you got symptoms of whatever it is, and you you haven't been healed of that yet, I promise you that if you're a believer in Christ and you're spending time with the Lord and you just haven't been healed of that yet, and I'm a walking testimony of this, I promise you that if you would, he will take you all the way to the end of your days, old life, all the way to the end of days with that same thing. It will not go any further than where where you're at. Now, you can reverse it once you believe, but you got to believe. All things are possible when you believe according to Jesus. So, let's look at this belief. How do we believe? It becomes it's a trust issue. Now, look at Ephesians 1:12 and 13. That we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of his glory. In him you also trusted after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. In whom also having believed, look at that. Having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. Once you became a believer in Christ, you confess Jesus. You said, Jesus, you know, I'm sorry I messed up. You took a leap of faith. And that is trust. And because you did that, you're aware. See, inside each of us, there is a knowing that we know that there is God and he exists. He's right here with us. And we may deny it. We may want to rebuke it. We may want to walk away from it. But the reality is it's there and it's truth. It's a faith though, a trust that you have to build into so that you can take your level of unbelief to belief to take your eyes off of, oh, well, you know, those those people that ridiculed Jesus, we knew. No one comes back from the dead. They should have known. They should have seen what happened when those bones were laid on Elisha. It was a story of old. Obviously, they hadn't seen it in their lifetime. And obviously, they hadn't heard that story or they didn't believe that story. One of the two. And they ridiculed him. They didn't even want to give him a chance. They were just like, "We know what's right. We know no one comes back from the dead. We know. Do you really? Do you really know everything? You're not God. Humble yourselves. Realize that. Hey, am I putting my limitations on God and what he can do? Yes. When you think you know something, you're limiting God and his capabilities. God created the heavens and the earth. And because he did that, he can do anything. If he wants me to turn blue, he can make me blue. He wants me to not breathe ever again but keep me alive. He can do that because he's the creator, the almighty powerful one. Now, does he do that? No. Uh but he could if he wanted to. Which means if he wants to bring somebody back from the dead, you better believe it he can. Especially when he's made his promises to say that you the believer who trust and walk in faith and spend time with me and have a relationship with me and you are righteous in me then you will live a long life. He has promised that that is in his scriptures homework. Go check it out. Go check it out. Look at what faith is. Hebrews 11 1-3. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. You see, you hear testimonies, and if you're not hearing testimonies, your faith isn't moving. You see, you've got to hear the testimonies. You got to go out and look and find them. Yes, you need to go search. Go find them. There are testimonies. If you're gathering around in your Bible studies at your church or you're going to your church, churches are starting to share the testimonies because they're realizing how powerful it is. It's got to take the level of belief from here to here. Why? We have a generation right now that remember they took the Bibles out of school, they took prayer out of school. These kids do not know God. So in order to get them back to God, they got to hear the testimonies and they're going to be like, "Really? Really?" Nah. But they hear it. It starts the act to activate the faith in them. By faith, we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God. Didn't I just say that God is the creator of heaven and earth? And because he created that, like I said, if he wanted me to live without breathing, he can make me live without breathing. That is God. And because he, the word of God framed it and put that in context for me, it helps me take my level of belief from here to here. Meaning that if I'm dealing with some kind of sickness, just because I can't get rid of it at that moment, doesn't mean it's going to be prosperous. It doesn't mean it's going to be fruitful. It doesn't mean it's going to hold me back because God is in control. And if he wants me to continue living, he wants me and he does, then I will continue on moving on until he's ready to take me home. When I'm ready to finally be done with that sickness and disease, then God is right there with me and he will hold my hand and he will walk me through it. And I'm telling you, I'm a walking testimony personally in that area. framed by the word of God so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. So faith is something you can't see. So the moment you start talking to God, guess what? You can't see him. Look at this. I want you to see something because Romans describes this perfectly that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, this is Romans 10:9 and 10. And believe in your heart. So confess with your mouth. So the moment you speak at Lord Jesus, you see every sickness that you're dealing with, you say Jesus, you are Lord over cancer. Jesus, you are Lord over asthma. Jesus, you are Lord over allergies. Whatever it is that you're dealing with, the moment you confess, Jesus is Lord. Same thing with your salvation. You said, "Jesus, I'm sorry I messed up." You said, "Jesus, I'm sorry." Go back to the thief on the cross. Jesus saved that man just from acknowledging his guilt and saying to Jesus, "Remember me." He talked to Jesus and Jesus saved him. So your eternity is saved. The moment you say, "Jesus, I'm sorry." Now, when you say, "Jesus, I declare Jesus over whatever sickness it is." Look what he says. And believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead. Well, how do you believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead? Jesus, I know you're there. I can't see you. You see, that's your act of faith. And the moment you are acting that faith, you're believing in Jesus that you can't see, but you know that God raised him from the dead because he's not dead. You see the level of belief now goes from here to here is building. Look what he says. Raise him from the dead, you will be saved. Another word for saved is delivered. You will be out of that sit. You're free. The moment you believe that Jesus is alive. He came out of the grave. You are free. You no longer have to live in bondage. The devil tells you otherwise, but you don't have to live in bondage. You're not even sick anymore. You just don't know it here yet. Mind over matter. I've done teachings on this. Go back to my old teachings. But look what he also says because he goes further and and and explains it more. For with the heart one believes into righteousness. You see all of a sudden now when Jesus forgives you, you're righteous. Jesus says you're righteous. Means you have the blessing of long life. Meaning sickness can't touch you. Isn't that amazing? And you and you just got to believe it. But the moment you talk, you're you're automatically believing it. You just haven't manifested it yet. You can look what the next part says. I'm with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation or deliverance. Because the moment you speak, so the every time, you know what? Every time you say, "Jesus, you are Lord over this bum knee." No, Lord, I'm not going to call it a bum knee anymore. Jesus, you are Lord over this knee, and it is perfect. And you keep saying it over and over over my neck, over my shoulder. You say the name of Jesus. You know what? I had dealt with depression 30 plus years ago. And that was what I was doing. I once I realized I had to ask the Lord, what what's going on with me here? And he showed me. And once I got that realization, I shut that door. I said, "No, no, no. Depressing depression be gone." And I said, "In the name of Jesus, you will not be of in this life, in this body. I will not deal with depression because I am not a depressed individual. And people think I'm animated and excited and always smiling. Why? Because I took that evening and I went after it with the name of Jesus. And yet I did it over and over and over again. I went to bed even thinking it sleeping going into my sleep that night like that. I woke up the next morning. I'm going to tell you, man. I w I that that depression was gone there. You feel the difference. Anyone who's dealt with depression knows what I'm talking about. Big difference. You feel light. You You feel free. Now, I felt like I had been in a punching match. You know, my body had been hit all over the place, but I wasn't depressed anymore. And I never been since. Tries to creep in every once in a while, but I recognize it. And I say, "Nope, I already kicked your butt. Get out of here." And it leaves. It has to because I've dominated and I overcame. Because I'm more than a conqueror. I'm an overcomer. and I did that. You are an overcomer. Jesus has given you these blessings. Why? Because you're spending time with him. You put him first. Seek first the kingdom of God and all these things will be added to you. You get to have all these. So, first, if you're not spending time with the Lord, which I've been preaching on, so I'm assuming if you're watching this video, you're spending time with the Lord. If not, get into it and start your routine. And then here's the best part of it. Cuz you're doing that and the Lord changes you. By the way, you your mentality changes in your relationship with him. You have a boldness and a confidence where you can go to him and say, "Uh, this shouldn't be bothering me. Why is it happening, Lord?" And you name you say, "I'm putting the Lord Jesus over this and I'm casting it out and giving it to you, Lord." And I promise you, you will see God move in your life and your level of belief will go from here to here. And it is amazing. So yes, if the Holy Spirit convicted me, if I'm in a situation where I see somebody dying prematurely for whatever reason, I'm gonna grab him and say, "Stand up in the name of Jesus." That is the authority that you have as a believer and you need to get your level of belief from here to here. Notice what that father of that child that was demonposses Previous Next
